Grapefruit Party – Necklace

[galleria width=”900″ height=”660″]

There is a well known chinese proverb that says “A picture is worth a thousand words”, and today’s necklace could not be more of physical manifestation of that.  Colors and shapes are powerful and have the ability to emanate beauty, happiness, aliveness, smell and flavor quite vividly and at an emotional level with just one look.

 

This is certainly what happened to me when I saw the beautiful outdoor summer lunch table image you see in my inspiration picture. The three GORGEOUS bead-like chandeliers are the obvious key elements that guided the design and creation of the Grapefruit Party Necklace, but what drove me to want to create this piece was the sensation I felt as soon as I saw this image: My mouth watering as I saw the image of a deliciously juicy grapefruit right in front of me. Don’t ask me why, but that is the first thing that I felt and came to mind :-)

 

Making this particular necklace reminded me one of the many reasons I do what I do: VeruDesigns allows me to re-create beautiful ideas, emotions, designs, PLACES and TASTES through my necklaces. I so hope that those of you who live in a part of the world where summer is about to begin get to enjoy the warmth of the weather, the color of our surroundings, the sounds of nature, and the deliciousness of summer’s fresh squeezed fruit juices with your loved ones. I shall do the same!

Much love,
