The creme de la creme of symbolism is the Fleur-de-Lis earring that adorns Louisa's right ear. Just as Louisville, Kentucky sits in the center of our nation, the Fleur-de-Lis earring sits at the center of the five-foot by six-foot oil painting, also in 18kt gold leaf...
...and just as Louisvillians proudly consider themselves to be the gems of America, Rich has imbedded a "Kentucky Cluster" of real diamonds within the Fleur-de-Lis.
