Fabulously Elegant
Elegance is pretty, but not loud. It may shimmer, shine and glitter, but in a calm and quiet way. That is what I found so attractive about this piece by Susan Whitehouse-Evenson of Tres Jolie Designs by Sue. There are a lot of mica powders, glass beads and ribbons in her collections. And translucent clay that allows all that shimmer to bounce about without opaque materials or dense color.
The familiar pinched petal form shows off additional texture on its surface and an edging of gold to match the complexity of beads and ribbon; none of it is overdone. The soft colors also work with the restrained elegance of the design.
If you like this piece, you’ll find many more beautiful pieces of jewelry, as well as scarves and purses on Sue’s website and in her Etsy shop.
