The listing, Magnificent Vintage Bronze toned Wing Necklace with Turquoise Color and Pearls has ended.
Isn't this necklace just amazing ... it is costume jewelry and made from a metal alloy. The Turquoise blue is very unique enameling and seems to have a swirl pattern. Little faux pearls line the enamel giving these almost steampunk hollow wings a very lady-like feminine feel. This is a large collar / bib type necklace that definitely makes a statement ! I think it would be gorgeous with blue jeans or a white or blue dress. The wings can move with the center piece so it's not like a big chunk just sitting there - it looks very graceful on and to me has a Native American feel The metal wings are a vintage bronze color. This is not an old necklace (I don't want to confuse you, just the color is vintage bronze) I took pictures of the clasp and back of the wings too so you can see how they move. It was very difficult for me not to use these on a scrapbook paper or altered craft item because they're so amazing. I have a Tim Holtz die of wings that are about this shape and had some crazy craft ideas going through my head! There is a little raise spot on the enamel that I didn't even notice until I was taking pictures but wanted to mention it so you are aware of anything at all that might not be expected. Wings have always had many spiritual meanings in religions whether Christian or Pagan, Druid ic or Wicca, or in Mythology and are often steeped in symbolism in ancient writings and prophecy -- Signs of love, hope, protection, rising above, overcoming your weaknesses and transcending this life. Not to mention they're just absolutely beautiful and a symbol of angels, gods, goddesses and motherhood, innocence, death and life. These wings look much like those on beings on some Egyptian papyrus.
