Where I live the flowers are blooming in gorgeous bright colors and the sky is vivid blue. It brings me back to the June day I was married in a breathtaking bird sanctuary in sight of the ocean. I could easily imagine running through the long grass picking wild flowers for my bridal bouquet. I wanted to capture that moment in creating a single perfect everlasting bloom.
I picked out two druzies, one for a flower petal, and one for a leaf and wire wrapped them both in sterling silver. The rest of the flower is a silver base with silver-plated colored wire. I am particularly proud of the small details like weaving tiny (2mm!) Swarovski crystals in with the colored wire to mimic the tiny druzy crystals. The entire flower is accented with crystals and tiny pink pressed glass flowers surround the central filigree.
This piece is large - 4.5 x 6", but is not too heavy because the weave is light and airy. Bridal Bloom will come with a solid stainless steel chain, please let me know what length you would like.
