This "Statement" collar surprisingly contains 8 different filigree pieces artistically hidden throughout. Sharayah of 4UIDZNE, was inspired by the English Rose Gardens.

Using those images, she mapped out the placement of 7 small filigree curves , 1 square filigree and the 5 rivolis so that a free-flowing path existed throughout the piece. Small freshwater pearls were the "stepping stones: taking us to another rose, flower or hedge.
