A handcarved gourd pendant wrapped in a silver bezel with a very unique zigzag bail. I rarely purchase jewelry for myself, I usually make pieces to go with specific outfits or just forget to wear jewelry...but when I saw these beautiful pieces in the display cabinet I just couldn't walk away. I just bought this earthy hand dyed silk assortment to put it on...I'm thinking multistrand with the beige, brown and maybe a blue or green since those are the colors I wear most.
What has been your most memorable vacation memento?
Absolutely gorgeous, you were right to splurge on this pendant. On my recent vacation, I picked up an ammonite pendant and a garnet cross, not necessarily the most memorable. Can't remember the most memorable?!?
ReplyDeleteReally very beautiful!! Even I to purchase jewelry very rarely.
ReplyDeleteI think I would have bought that even if the bezel were empty. That bail is incredible. Yes, multi-strand earth tone ribbons. I can see that.
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous! I usually only buy books from museums, but years ago I bought some silver filigree jewelry from Turkey.
ReplyDeleteTotally splurge-worthy! I think it is funny that you don't wear much jewelry when you create amazing things for jewelry designers to use! But I love this piece and I can tell it would be a signature piece for you. Very cool!

I can see why you wanted it and think it will look fabulous with a silk necklace! We never go anywhere so I really haven't bought anything!

Definitly a fabulous piece...until I read the post I thought the pendant itself was your work you had put into an amazing bail...it definitly is a "you" piece.
ReplyDeleteI never buy jewelry when I travel but last winter in Key West I purchased a sterling silver starfish, which I love and a coin pendant...a huge purchase for me! :~)
Enjoy your pendant...
Cheers
I like it!
