Pink Rose Garden Necklace...will never lose its bloom


Pink Rose Garden

Do you ever have a song you can't get out of your head? My mom used to sing one line from the song..."I never promised you a rose garden!" I just had to get it out of my system!

Faceted pink jade, mauve crystals, a sterling oval ring, hammered disc and flower pot toggle make this asymmetrical design (~18 inches long) the perfect necklace for those pink rose lovers.
