A beautiful antique bronze necklace. This Victorian-style necklace is simply gorgeous, stunning, and breathtaking. The color of bronze and shades of purple give this necklace a feminine, yet delicate design. With the Fall Season upon us, I wanted to design a necklace for Fall and Winter. I can see you wearing this necklace with a beautiful sweater or a button-down crisp blouse.
The main focal point of this necklace is a Vintaj natural brass Triplasian leaf charm. I love to change the look of some of my jewelry pieces to give them the appearance of the Victorian Era and that's what I did. I took the leaf charm and patinated it with Amethyst magic wax. I added a Mod Podge to seal the wax and give the leaf charm a gorgeous shine. Once the leaf and bead cap were completed, I added a Swarovski Bordeaux crystal pearl for a more unique style. The Bordeaux color is so rich you can taste it. I also added a Czech merlot cruller bead to this necklace to add sparkle. Swarovski Bordeaux crystal pearl surrounded and wrapped with a bronze-plated vintage leaf bead cap which I also patinated with purple paint. A gorgeous Tierra Cast bronze plated acorn charm was added along with a Victorian-style clock charm. I have also added all the beads and charms to a Terra Cast round link. The gorgeous curb and figure 8 chain completes this Victorian Style necklace.
What does a pearl symbolize?
Pearls are the ultimate symbol of wisdom. Valued for their calming effects, pearls represent serenity while strengthening valuable relationships and conveying a sense of safety. Pearls also symbolize purity, as well as integrity, and loyalty.
Despite the many different things' pearls are said to symbolize, the most widely held meaning among people today is pearls as a symbol of the purity and loyalty of their wearer. This is one reason why more and more brides are opting to wear pearls on their wedding day.
