$9 · Honeyed Nacre and Abalone Portrait drops [$8.50]

Estate item from the fashion jewellery collection of a dearly loved one. To honour her memory and her deep love of animals, ALL of the money from the sale of these items will be donated to animal rescue and charity groups. <3 These beautiful drops are 1 1/2" ( 3.7 cm) long and have new backings. White nacre is topped with a light honey coloured faceted dome in the upper ovals and the lower oval is abalone shell. Its colours have the warm honeyed tinge from the tone of the dome yet the swirls of colour beneath, especially the teals and greens glow through perfectly. The old gold tone of the metal wonderfully echoes the honey and is shaped in a rope twist which lends a touch of the neoclassical to these drops. x-posted
