Bliss St. and Indigo Heirlooms

Shells, One was in her mother’s drawers. They were a few in the cupboards, another in her china cabinet yet another in her favorite cup. As far as she knew her mother had never seen the ocean. Where did they come from? It wasn’t until she opened the jewelry box that she found wrapped in a silk hankie was a shell and a note.
“Darling, As a shell shelters pearls so shall our love shelter us from life storms”

This rich blue and green enamel shell measures 7/9-in by just over 3/4-in

This listing is for the Charm only. Chain and dangle not included.

This is a retired charm and is limited to one.

Real morpho butterfly wings as background make this double sided Rhodium plated Pendant stand out. This double sided pendant has a palm tree on one side and on the other a flamingo, which is unusual for these pieces.

I bought a collection from the original vendor, the last time he took these out was for the NY world’s Fair in 1964. He sold and dealt with butterfly wing jewelry from the 40′s-the 60′s

American companies, Hoffman specifically started making morpho butterfly wing jewelry in the 30′s after it became popular in England in the 20′s.

The Pendant measures 1-in by 1/2-in.

I will slowly be listing the whole collection.
