Vintage Yellow Bronze Rose Bud Bead Cap and Dangle
Product Details
The Vintage Yellow Bronze Rose Bud is modelled fully in the round, no more than half an inch across, its petals furled over one another around a closed centre and a small calyx of leaves gathered at the base. The yellow bronze takes a warm colour, and the petal edges hold the antiquing unevenly, so no two buds shade quite the same way.
The rose is Mary's flower before it is anyone else's, the rose without thorns, the mystical rose of the Litany of Loreto, the flower that gives the rosary its name and its garland. A bud carries a further meaning on top of that: something promised rather than something finished, a devotion still opening. Small pieces like this are often what make a finished rosary or a pair of earrings look considered rather than merely assembled.
The rose bud was faithfully reproduced from an antique original and cast in the USA using a traditional fine-detail casting process that preserves its vintage character.
- Made in the USA
- Artisan-cast from an antique original
- Finished by hand, so every piece is subtly unique.
- Buy the medal alone, or add an optional chain or cord necklace
- Add a cord or chain to have it arrive assembled and ready to wear
- Arrives in a deluxe velour jewelry box
