So excited my pendant is finally here! We recently had to sell a family home on Cape Cod to support my 93 yo Mom’s move to assisted living in June. While we all knew it is the right thing to do for our Mom, it was really hard. I wanted to design something that would always remind me of the beautiful memories and my Mom. She is named Truro Jean!

The ACA represents me- an April baby, surrounded by the emeralds for my Mom’s May birthday. The pearl represents the ocean and beaches I love and the shelling hobby I have done for years on them. The flower represents my Mom’s love of flowers and all the beautiful ones on our property. The yellow diamonds are the sunshine we enjoyed on all our visits. Finally the 3 diamonds on each petal represent my DS, DH and me and the three siblings.

If you made it this far thanks for your patience. It was so hard to capture the colors and sparkle of the gems. I tried in several different lightings. IMG_9245.jpeg IMG_9254.jpeg IMG_9256.jpeg IMG_9254.jpeg

A few more by DKJ. The pearl is from Andrew Moline and the color is gorgeous. The ACA is a 6.24 K from Whiteflash. A sparkle bomb in the right lighting. Both the pendant and charm are beautifully engraved on both sides. IMG_9234.jpeg IMG_9235.jpeg

Thank you. My Mom always jokes about aspiring to be a beach bum. We were so fortunate to have it for so many wonderful years.

Your pendant is stunning, and the meaning behind it priceless. It's like those wonderful medieval/Renaissance puzzle ciphers. "Hold infinity in the palm of your hand" - you hold your family and your memories around your neck. That's a treasure. You have created a true heirloom.

Beautiful.
