I love this.

Oh that's all?

Love it!! Not only purchases of beautiful, one of a kind jewelry but also of history!!

I wonder if a modern and affordable version could be made with a fireball pearl hanging from a silver or white gold bow?

 

[pattye]

Especially with all the large drop pearls available today, probably a replica could be made quite easily. Now wouldn't that be a conversation piece??!!

 

[lary007]

I would definitely be interested. I love history, so finding ways to incorporate it with my jewelry is right up my alley.

I'd buy a replica that used a real pearl.

Sounds like a challenge for someone
