Autumn Leaves and Freshwater Pearls: Happiness



Normally it might be a stretch to suggest that leaves, autumn or otherwise, have anything at all to do with pearls.  However, they definitely belong in the same sentence describing this exquisite blister pearl leaf necklace.

I love blister pearls. The focal point of this piece is a wonderful hand carved leaf blister pearl in shades of creamy white & ivory, carmel and taupe, and soft blush pink.  I've used silver to hand wire wrap gorgeous soft blush pink freshwater pearls in this necklace. Extremely pale, they're almost a sort of feminine neutral. Bali sterling silver accents both the necklace and the coordinating earrings. 
What makes this even more meaningful is that pearls symbolize a woman's perfect beauty. A pearl necklace is believed to warn sensitive people of imminent danger. Pearls promote wisdom and contentment; soften pain and bring joy.  And a single leaf symbolizes happiness.

Now, that's a brilliant combination!  Browse more romantic necklaces at Bittersweet Ridge Jewelry.
