The Talya D Collection

The talya D collection is vast and varied.The spirit of a collector is so passionate.There is an intense interest and love of beauty,culture,history.Maybe I should have been a museum curator.That would definitely be heaven .But meanwhile,life is just the way i love it,and i am the curator of my own collection. When i fall in love with an item,I immediately start studying it,researching it,learning as much as i can about it.It grows into an intense interest that brings about collecting of the item very intensively,untill i feel i have a good collection.Then I just add to it from time to time when i encounter a very fine piece. I organize it,log it and go on to the next collection,while still loving every piece in the previous one.This is a very exciting facet of my life as there is always so much happening in that realm of collecting.I also love to read history and novels relating to the culture of which i am collecting at the moment.Sometimes i read and then decide to study more about a certain culture and to collect items that embody that culture. I always make sure that the collections pay for themselves .So i auction a few pieces from the collection to do that.Every collection is therefore paid for.That is how most collectors do it. So i live surrounded by beauty.That is elating in itself and makes it easier to stay positive and happy and loving.My most passionate collecting right now is of Chinese snuff bottles.
