Funnily enough, when I was writing that post. I remembered some of the 
decorative wrought ironwork. I have seen in Paris.
The extra rivets were the "golden rivets", I suppose. ;-)

Hi.

Yes, i saw them. They are better for English scenes. The 1850s Southern
USA had very different styles, and much more colorful, too. :-)

But big thanks anyway! It is the spirit that counts!   :-)
