Graceful pendant
Another beautiful piece of work from Alok Jain, this pendant is so lovely. The amethyst stone is large and the twining silver vines of the setting showplace it elegantly. The pendant is a larger size. The chain which came with my pendant is different, more like a box chain, but it is very sturdy and compliments the pendant very well..
I own two pairs of these! I grow them too.
I liked these earrings so much and the price point was so reasonable that I bought a second pair on sale. I know that there is a real leaf encased in the plating, so if the first pair wears out I will have another one ready. I know exactly what leaf this artist chose to preserve: Dischidia ruscifolia, a vining relative of the Hoya family which is very popular among plant collectors. I do grow this plant along with many Hoyas. A hanging basket overflowing with this Dischidia's vines appears as thousands of tiny green hearts, and gives rise to the common name of the "thousand hearts vine." I own several pieces of jewelry from this artist and these earrings are of the same high quality construction as his other work.
