Summertime means wild roses in our neck of the woods here in southern Oregon! 🌞🌸
Larkin's wild rose stud earrings have been a popular design, and they wanted to try their hand at fabricating more detailed, life-size roses. These lovely blossom pendants each feature five heart-shaped petals and twenty five (yes! 25!) stamen. The center is that unique fuzzy/dimpled texture characteristic of their wild counterparts. Can any flower fanciers out there tell us what that part is called? Is it the ovary? Image searches have failed me.
Can I talk about the back yet? I wanna talk about the back. 😅 Each rose also has a wearer’s secret, not visible to the casual observer! The attachment hoop for the necklace cord is no boring jump ring, but is actually a wee inch worm pal. <swoon> 🐛
I'm a big fan of the mixed metal copper/silver combo-- what do you think? Copper or silver petals?
