[Asian Art Jewels] Inspiration from my high rise garden

[Rosalind Ng]

Living on the 9th floor doesn't have to be devoid of soil and plants.  Every morning I wake up to see what my bittergourd plant has been up to in the night.  Here's a picture of them making their way up my homemade trellis (assembled with a couple of old shoe laces).  Those springy limbs of theirs sometimes claw themselves onto places they are not supposed to, so I have to lead them onto the right path! :)

Talking about their springy limbs, I sort of transported that onto a necklace project I started on. Here it is!  It's half done now and this is the centre focal part of my necklace.  This is a combination of Ametrine, Citrine and Pearls on goldfilled wire all coiled up together.
