Take Two: Pod & Brambles

[sterling silver, copper, enamel & coral]

I finally finished my other Pod & Brambles Necklace.  You maybe can recall the first?  After a few different ideas and trials, I finally devised a slightly different chain for this version of the design which features two stark little branches that make the bail on the enameled component.  I love the contrast between the wild color and form of the pod and the minimal spirit of the chain — a perfect blend of whimsy and easy,  organic elegance.
