Watercolour Pansy Star Tassel Necklace

This fun statement necklace is made from mirrored and glitter acrylic in gorgeous contrasting colours with a watercolour style printed pansy and a trompe l’oeil tassel design. This necklace comes hanging on a 45cm (18") silver-plated chain These come in 6 different varieties of pansy. (And 6 different tassels!) The pansy has been adopted as a symbol of free thought, since “pansy” comes from “pensee,” the French word for “thought.” These gorgeous blooms were worn as a symbol by many of the brave women of the Suffragette movement. The tassel has almost always been a symbol of power and prestige. Initially serving merely as a knot to prevent weaving from unraveling, over the course of time they took on a more powerful significance and were even worn by priests and military officers as talismans to ward off evil spirits. Handmade in the UK by Esoteric London.
