The Character Arc
This is not a brooch. This is a magic wand. This is a piece of wearable art for the woman who understands the power of transformation.
Like a single, perfect autumn leaf caught in the last rays of a golden sunset, this brooch is an absolute riot of fall color. A stunning collage of navette, round, and keystone-cut rhinestones in shades of warm amber, deep smoky topaz, and rich citrine are masterfully arranged. And woven amongst them, brilliant Aurora Borealis (AB) crystals flash with an otherworldly fire of blue and purple.
Do you have a simple sweater languishing in your closet? A coat that feels a little too plain? Pin this on, and watch the magic happen. It will instantly elevate any garment from simple to spectacular. This is a well-documented, collector-grade Juliana piece, a testament to the golden age of American costume jewelry, ready to bring its transformative power to your wardrobe.
