The Colorful Present

Elva Fields

No gift like the present, and this gem is here to remind us all at how lovely and colorful right now can be. A vintage jeweled bow (from the late 1940s or early 1950s) is bright and hopeful in hues of brilliant blue, pink, green, red and pale yellow. Set against a beaded backdrop of handmade glass coin beads in midnight black, the bow brooch becomes a standout, and the addition of tiny beads of pink quartz, emerald crystal, black crystal, and blue quartz throughout the five strands only heightens the reference to vibrant and vital moments here and there (and the charming colors of the brooch.) A silver-over-copper clasp hooks at back, and the necklace measures 18" length, shortest strand.
