………………………..I LOVE this color combination, and I’ll tell you why….but first you will have to take a trip with me down Memory Lane. One of mine and Jac’s favorite movies of all time is “Gone With the Wind”……. One of my favorite characters in the movie is Belle Watling….surprised!? I bet you weren’t expecting that…….OK, remember the scene when Rhett goes to her and cries on her shoulder complaining about Scarlet, not realizing Belle’s heart was breaking because she secretly was in love with Rhett……..OK…….Belle was wearing a tiara that had amber ball beads with light shinning through [I’m sure lit on purpose], and she was in a topaz and wine dress……with her red hair….I just thought she look wonderful………Those colors hit a cord with me, and I have loved that color combination ever since. Remember, I was probably a teenager the first time I ever saw the movie, but colors and costumes always made an impression on me…….Every time I see that movie, that scene with Belle still looks wonderful, and I still feel sorry for her………That was a long winded story to get to the reason I chose these colors for this necklace. The Torsade is accented with Russian Gold disc beads, and stud earrings complete the set. Caramel and Wine or Port are the perfect backdrop for this necklace…..Maybe you own the wine sweater with the emb. sleeves and the caramel faux suede or Super Ponte pant, or perhaps you have the wine Boho skirt and Caramel WK turtleneck…….The Caramel plaid blazer???? This necklace will bring these outfits to a higher designer level……………..beautiful………..and all because of Belle Watling!…………………………………….enjoy………………..much Love…………………………Louis

Louis I love your story and Gone With the Wind is probably my favorite movie also. I think I fell in love with Clark Gable the first time I saw that movie I must have been in my early teens And I do remember the scene you described. …poor Belle
I love these necklaces ,,,

Oh Louis right!
Another movie this color scheme takes center stage,”Entrapment”.
Check out Catherine in her dutchess satin, gold and wine design,
with her dramatic floor length shawl, as a sash, and lipstick dyed to match! But she’s
NOT to feel sorry for!!! She played an art thief, and in the end, got the money, AND THE BOY too!
Is the color more like the wine in the middle or the right?
The colors at the extreme right are the most accurate.
I love that story!!! And, the necklace is fabulous!
