This gorgeous necklace was originally designed as part of the collection created for the Philadelphia Art Museum for the Commemorative exhibit of Frida Kahlo’s work, celebrating her 100th birthday. This exhibit was the largest conglomerate of Kahlo’s work in the United States since the early 1950s.
The green color of this gorgeous natural Mohave Desert Turquoise evokes the color of the parrots and other birds Kahlo loved so much and who frequently appear by her side on her self portraits.
A vintage Arts and Crafts brooch is reincarnated as the center piece of this colorful necklace. Three full marquise drops create the contrast to the round pressed glass Turquoise color cabochon. A chain of brightly Green Mohave Desert Turquoise orbs linked in 14k Rose Gold Filled wire ties it all together.
One of a kind beauty.
