Filigreeeee Pink Necklace

$99.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

This exclusive range of jewellery originates from Apricot Gift Boutique. A store established circa 1984 in the heart of beachside suburb Mairangi Bay, New Zealand. The store was owned and operated by Colombian artist, Helizabeth Borrero de King offering a snapshot of her love of fashion, style, and all that glitters. A gift and jewellery store with a little taste of everything that catered to a diverse group of locals, fashionistas, and supported artisans. The store was known for embracing community and culture as well as bringing a unique overseas perspective to the area.

Brought to you in this collection, are some of the surviving pieces from the store's closure in the early 1990's. As with all of our curation, each piece is unique and brings joy to the wearer. Each piece is a one-of-a-kind treasure, perfect for the discerning wearer who appreciates the art of style and the allure of the past.

Rhodochrosite is said to help to cultivate inner freedom by negating harmful behavioural patterns that hinder personal growth and diminish physical well-being. The mesmerizing gems infuse a sense of calm, dissolving negative emotional patterns.

This stunning necklace is secured with a delicate hook and takes simple stones to the 'next level'. Wear with a simple or, a stupendous outfit. This necklace fits right into boho, festival timeless chic.

History: The word chinoiserie /ʃɪnˈwɑːzəri/ comes from the French term Chinois which translates as Chinese or, after the Chinese taste (as in style). Chinoiseries means a Western or, European interpretation of an Asian style and may not an necessarily be of an actual Asian design. Painted Bird has an array of garments we consider 'chinoiserie' from a number of Asian countries but for purposes of website search - we offer as one collection. We believe they are all beautiful, unique and wearable art for the now. Fashion designers have repeated these designs over a variety of eras. Enjoy!
