A list of intriguing things
One: Sotheby’s is auctioning a pearl-and-diamond tiara—which also converts into a necklace—worth $1-1.5 million. What’s interesting: They have an insta filter that allows you to post with it. Here’s the link to the filter. The tiara is below. Forbes has more on its provenance.
Two: This gorgeous photo isn’t a work of art but the Hubble Telescope’s snapshot of the Veil Nebula—which is 2,100 light-years from Earth. BGR has the story. The image is below.
Three: This is a ‘reindeer cyclone’ in Russia: “a swirling mass of threatened reindeer stampeding in a circle making it impossible to target an individual.”
Four: A Maharashtra school turned a dead tree stump into a giant pencil. And we think it’s kinda cool. The Hindu has the story.
