The envy of every New Orleanian is a collection of impressive Fleur de Lis. While this was true before Katrina. It seems to have multiplied after the storm as a symbol of pride in the city. You can have this massive Fleur De Lis -- the shot is in a window of an antique store down in the French Quarter.By the way, browsing for antiques is a favorite pastime down in the Quarter.

Antique-ing is great fun- and this huge statue is certainly unique! wow!
It doesn't look so old. I like the symbol and remember it used to appear in a lot of French manuscripts.
Huge!
Is that in a storefront on Royal Street? Ah, the memories of walking down that street.
