My favorite TV series is called "Von und zu lecker". It refers to an aristocrats title like there are 'Gräfin Katherina von und zu Plettenberg' e.g..
Lecker=tasty/delicious.
I love local german-aritocrats and news/input concerning this topic, so this series is a cooking show mixed with MTV cribs (or castles) and a little style and historic elements. In short: un rêve pour moi.
In a recent show I found some nice things i will now show you.
First a perfect female ring-combo with the typical german and my favorite type of a signet ring: Green bloodstone (Blutjaspis) with litte red dots in it and yellow gold with an engraved crest.
Secondly a families patriarch with a, again typical german, dresscode.
Tracht is a type of fashion only germans can wear and I am very proud of this particular thing we dont copy from the savile row or Italy.
Horrido
Ps: Cannot begin to post about their homes, am too enthusiastic and wouldnt have no freetime anymore. I love old buildings.
I will certainly look into this, too. maybe this is a bit embarrassing but I also like such programms about nobility and their homes (even if owned by non-nobles nowadays), also about antiques like Kunst&Krempel, Antiques Roadshow or the recent Austrian one (was schätzen Sie?) hosted by Karl von Hohenlohe at the Dorotheum..
