The Scarlet Pimpernel-Inspired Necklace: "Marguerite Blakeney"

        "I take it, sir, that you do not approve of our new society."
       "Approval, sir, in my opinion, demands the attainment of perfection. And in that sense, you rather overrate the charms of your society. I'faith, for one thing, it does seem monstrous ill-dressed for any society, even a new one."
-The Scarlet Pimpernel by Baronness Emmuska Orczy 





This Scarlet Pimpernel-inspired necklace is made of folded poetry, "pearl" accents filched from an antique bracelet, a hand-painted flower, and a bit of black ribbon. Equal parts old-world elegance and urban whimsy, it is the perfect statement-necklace for the modern Marguerite.

A truly beautiful, feminine necklace that any Scarlet-Pimpernel fan would be delighted to own. Perhaps the best part is that this necklace is utterly unique. I made it from 90% re-purposed/recycled materials, so you won't find anything like it elsewhere, search as you might. :)
