Castle Dreams Earrings ~ Nihon Collection (SOLD)

 Castle Dreams

Fluorite, peridot, garnet, rainbow moonstone, citrine, silver sakura flowers. 

Can you guess what Castle Dreams was inspired by? 

 The first castle we visited, Osaka Castle. Interestingly, it houses a museum within its walls, which I felt was a wonderful idea as it allows visitors to step into a piece of history, as well as learn about Osaka's past. If you climb all the way up, you'll be able to have a 360 degree view of Osaka! 

 

I know this pair may not receive as much love because of its pale colours, but it is a pair that is very easy to wear because of that same reason. It will look lovely with dark hair as the backdrop!

Glowing, smooth, pale green fluorite in this large shape is rare, and though there are natural inclusions in them, it adds some texture and shine to it.

Clusters of rainbow moonstone, garnet, citrine and a single trillion- cut peridot top the fluorite, and hang off the sweetest rhodium plated sakura flowers, hommage to the beautiful sakura which were in bloom when I went this spring.
