Wearing It

The necklace can be worn at full length to show off its full beauty or can be draped around the neck several times to adjust its length and suit personal preference. Although the piece speaks of pain, it is not a sorrowful piece. It is bold, but it is also understated, yet elegant and sophisticated. I want this piece to instil in the wearer a sense of quiet confidence and strength, so they may wear it with poise and dignity on a special occasion, an evening out or at a family event.
