Glorious Growing

Glorious, indeed.  First word that came to mind when we paired two celebrated finds to create a golden homage to growth and beauty, actually.  Five strands of faceted pyrite evoke a subtle flash of metallic, and the addition of gilt brass beads amongst the stone beads only heightens their gorgeous expression.  Flowers bloom beautifully at the side of the strands, a vintage brooch-and-earrings set rendered in gold-covered sterling silver, a set of jewels that truly stand the test of time and brilliance.  Measuring 19" in length, a gilt copper toggle completes the look at back.
