If you've seen my Instagram, you know all about this piece. Daisy petals collected from my own backyard were carefully traced and cut out of silver to create this sweet daisy pendant. Each petal is unique, and the back features all the details as well. I then set a turquoise in the center, creating a dreamy combination. This piece was made just for fun. From collecting the flowers to figuring out how to create this piece, it was a joyful experience. I promise this daisy comes with such happiness that you're sure to feel it when you wear it too.

Fun fact:
Vitreous enamel, has been used for centuries and was notably employed by ancient Egyptians as far back as 1500 BCE to adorn jewelry. Its enduring popularity lies in its vibrant colors and durability, making it a timeless art form that has stood the test of time.

Care for your Enamel Jewelry:
I have chosen high-quality materials to create a piece of artful jewelry that will last a lifetime. Even though they will be so comfortable, you might forget they are there, try not to bathe or swim with them. Moisture from the water will cause your silver to darken very quickly, especially chlorine. Next, put on perfume or body spray before your jewelry, and lastly, I recommend removing it before using cleaning products. Many will cause silver to darken from the fumes, and some can even hurt your enamel, so to be careful, I always recommend removing all jewelry.
