With a string of rare lavender opals, several very clean and sparkly amethysts (both lilac and green), and the most divine Brazilian stalactite, this bracelet/necklace combination seemed to design itself. Including nearly one hundred 24k gold vermeil Bali headpins, I hand linked the components together into two related bracelets that clasp together to make one opulent necklace.
I developed a flower bract design ... like a lilac, or butterfly bush ... full blown gem blossoms at the bottom and unopened golden buds at the top. The green and purple combination reminded me of the Anna's Hummingbird with it's green and purple iridescence, and the flower shape seemed to whisper to them as well.

The hummingbird in flight is a water-spark,
an incandescent drip of American fire,
the jungle's flaming resume,
a heavenly, precise rainbow:
the hummingbird is an arc,
a golden thread,
a green bonfire!
Oh
tiny
living
lightning,
when you hover in the air,
you are a body of pollen,
a feather or hot coal,
I ask you:
What is your substance?

Beautiful bracelets. Again, it feels like an Asian influence to the design which I love. The color is exquisite too!

Thank you, Julie. I love the Asian sensibility, so in tune with nature.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely exquisite, Judy! You've so beautifully captured the spark and iridescence of hummingbirds.
