Astrantia Necklace

Designer Gwendolyn Davis was inspired by nature and deco-era Art Nouveau to create her gorgeous Astrantia necklace, constructed out of mother of pearl petals from pre-war Japan.  "As with everything  I do creatively, my best teacher was nature. She teaches you the value of economy, proportion and exuberance all at once. The flower name ”Astrantia” comes from the Greek for Star, but I was thinking of a Gardenia when I made it."

Fun fact about Gwendolyn?  She has a phobia for people in big, goofy costumes, likely stemming from a previous job as a costumer at Universal Studios.

$340 at Gwendolyn Davis.
