What a good choice you made there! Truly delightful. Well done.

I've posted this on my Facebook "Ethnic Jewellery and Adornment" page, where I think many will enjoy it. It's a very "warm" and inviting piece - it draws you towards it and asked to be lived with, I feel. And one responds in kind.

We just returned from Antwerp where I wore it and got many compliments wearing it, yes Eva i just make a little knot in the neck.

Sounds excellent, Marie-Ange. You wouldn't have a photo of yourself wearing it, would you? It would be quite interesting actually to see it worn, physically, but in the absence of that - as to most of us applies - an image would be wonderful.

I will ask my husband to make a picture when I am wearing it one of these days Joost.

That's great, Marie-Ange. Will be looking forward to seeing it!
