‘Rose and Violet’ heart necklace
With engraved text from the poem " The Eve of St. Agnes" Romantic poet J Keats, Sterling silver heart with 9ct gold accents, the necklace has a blue sapphire set in the flower cross which overlays the heart. Chain is sterling silver available in variable lengths.
This piece is an affirmation on how love can conquer tradition and circumstance. It is a story in the tradition of 'Romeo and Juliet' except that in Keats's poem the two lovers escape into the future. I love this piece of text for its use of the flowers in the vision.

" Seen mid the sapphire heaven’s deep repose;
Into her dream he melted, as the rose
Blendeth its odour with the violet,—-"

Climbing Rata Silver necklace
A twisting vine winds itself like a garland around the neck. Catching the light in all directions this chain never ends and looks stunning and vibrant for those who like a strong necklace statement. I love this chain. It evolved from the early pohutukawa necklace (as worn by Anita McNaught on BBC) and was inspired by the look of the local rata vines wrapping themselves around the local manuka trees. It has always been a challange to make these but after 15 years of manufacture I have learnt to love the process. Too many links to count. Also available in various carat gold. Please request a quote. It is stunning in either 14ct red gold or 18ct yellow gold but will look showy in any gold and in silver.

Please advise length required. Extra long length will cost more. I will quote before making.
