Macdonald Willowwood Earrings....

The first time I visited Kelvingrove Museum in Glasgow I was transfixed by a series of painted hessian Gesso panels by Margaret Macdonald, wife of Charles Rennie Mackintosh. The title of the panel is taken from a sonnet by Dante Gabriel Rossetti and was commissioned by Miss Kate Cranston for the Salon de Luxe, Willow Tea Rooms which also provided an inspiration for another design of mine. Sterling Silver Earrings with goldplate accents, set with Iolite & Peridot. Length 6.7cm
