Camelia Pendant

There are jewels that by their beauty and the apparent simplicity of their composition speak for themselves, and this pendant - with sterling silver chain and paper craftsmanship - has a lot to tell. In the production process, the charm of nature coexists with the triviality of a 'simple' sheet of paper transformed into a flower after careful hand modelling. A jewel that is as delicate and light in appearance as it is strong and durable is the Japanese Rose itself, the name by which the camellia is also known.

Originally from the tropical lands of East Asia and the protagonist of its history and legends, the camellia, as with artistic paper modeling and origami, enjoys a great deal of popularity in Japanese culture, partly because this flower has a similar meaning to that given to the rose in the West.

Now that you know why this pendant with silver Venetian chain and camellia craft is an example of 'jewelry that speaks for itself', there are plenty of reasons to make it yours... or someone else's.
