The “no collection” and the black market

The mistakenly called Armella Spitalier collection would have no reason of existing if it was not meant to be shared universally. Today I’m sure it’s still the only pre-Columbian sample that can be visited from every corner of the planet earth.

Honesty is their insignia brand and perfectionism their greatest quality.
