Took the Risk to Bloom

elva

You could have stayed curled up as a bud and been cozy and comfortable, but you took the risk to bloom and just look at the beauty and boldness you've become! A reminder to reach, stretch, and grow, this vintage flower brooch is a marvel made of papier-mâché that has been adorned with a glossy black lacquer and decorated with millinery-inspired details at its center. At 4" in diameter, it is quite the stylish statement. A strand of dotted bone beads from Kenya only adds to the allure, especially with vintage African glass beads in black and white mixed in the line-up, and a gilt copper toggle at back. A risk worth taking, indeed. Measures 24" length.
