Hear Me Roar

deb

This wild cat (though unmarked, likely by the late Carlton Ridge, a celebrated jeweler known for her gold-dipped designs) was part of a Kentucky estate that came to our studio years ago (in its original box from Lazarus, no. less!) and we've always wanted to find a way to honor its fierce glamour with a hint at over-the-top but wearable style. We hope we've done just that. We paired the brooch with a vintage 1980s necklace that had broken at the middle and made the ferocious feline the front-and-center star of the show. A sliding hook catch/clasp is at back, the entire glam design measuring just over 16" length.
