Roberta


Over 40 years ago, my mom took a jewelry making class in college. She made some beautiful things including a prototype of her engagement ring (the real thing was later stolen and never replicated). The gold filigree elements and the light turquoise glass teardrops are vestigial components from my mom's creative college days, pieces she saved with a lot of other intentions. I love the way the teardrops are luminous even without the assistance of the afternoon light, they paired perfectly with pearls. So hopeful, so romantic.
