MAGICAL VANITY CASES - A COLLECTION FOR A ROCK LEGEND

Carol takes a look at some genuine rarities: jewelled vanity cases. Inspired by the tastes of her late brother, Freddie Mercury, Kashmira Bulsara has assembled this collection with the help of jeweller Peter Edwards, who fills us in on the history of the priceless cases.

Peter and Sarah Hue-Williams's book A Kind Of Magic can be found here: http://www.freddiemercury.com/en/news/a-kind-of-magic-art-deco-vanity-cases-book-based-on-the-kashmira-bulsara-collection
