SWAN LAKE #1

Odette


my personal favourite and also the inspiration behind the blog title. made up of shiny balls, crystal bicones and a svelte ballerina right at the bottom.a combination of class and grace.
$15


Redbeard

just like the enchantor who tricked the prince with his daughter, these earrings look simple but yet packed with substance.
$12


Odile(SOLD)

not quite the same as the lovely odette, but still charming in its own way is the black swan odile. butterflies with a chain and a small white pearl (:
$10


Siegfried

named after the prince.a combination of the musculine with the feminine.the classical with the romantic.
$12

Jestor

what better way to show your feelings for your other half than on your ear?a mismatched pair of earrings but yet a match at the same time.
$10


The Forbidden Forest (SOLD)

where the prince first fell in love with odette, and where he braved all odds to save his true love.romantic and with a touch of valour.
$12


The Baron (2 more available)

bolder, louder, and more striking.
the baron is made from brown and white pearls, stringed together with champagne coloured crystals and flower charms.
$9


The Baroness

more demure, gentler and fresher.
the baroness is made from red and champagne crystals, stringed together with a lone bird and a rose.
$9

Princess

the princess of the ballad.the mother of siegfried who plans his royal ball, this ring is a mixture of white pearls and dark and light blue crystals stringed with a lone ballerina at the side. just like how the ball was meant for the prince to choose his one and only bride and only by remaining faithful can he ever attain odette.

alas.it is not to be.and the ballerina which depicts the lovely odette remains at the side alone, and forgotten as the cunning odile takes her place.
$10


but i should stop.i am getting carried away by the ballad...enjoy! (:
