“THE BLACK TORTUE NECKLACE & EARRING SET”
…………………I am happy to introduce my new TORTUE NECKLACE and EARRING set, J361087……..In French Tortue means “TURTLE”……The minute I saw the raw bead I thought of a Ridge Back Tortoise…….As a child I had many little turtles as pets. I kept them in plastic bowls with a island in the middle filled with colored tiny stones. There was a plastic palm tree inserted in the middle. I was fascinated….That fascination never went away…..Whenever I would see that there was a documentary on sea turtles on TV I would stop and watch in awe. As adults, Jac and I collect English Tortoise Tea Caddies from the 1800s. They came in all shapes and sizes….and colors…..They were used by the English aristocracy to store their precious tea….Tortoises have always been an inspiration for me…………………………………………………………………………………. The necklace is made up with a series of graduated beads in three sizes, all with the ridged back. They are hung from an open link chain, which has a three inch extender. The drop earring is made in the smallest bead with a lever back top………..I personally LOVE shiny BLACK jewelry…….It is a color that is hard to find. There is nothing more classic than Black and White in solids and prints, and SHINY BLACK is a great accessory color in BAGS, SHOES and JEWELRY!….It also looks wonderful with ALL COLORS, and is a great accent…….The fact that you can get a necklace and earring set, and have the ROLLER BRACELET to match solves so many problems and just makes accessorizing so much easier! As I have said, we are bringing back the ROLLER BRACELET in THREE SIZES………SMALL……..AVERAGE as the original…………and LARGE………..Every piece is light in weight, and the earrings are practically weightless. If you have not tried SHINY BLACK jewelry yet…..this would be the perfect place to start!………………….enjoy…………………………..much Love……………………..Louis
