Monet: Metamorphosis
Monet: Metamorphosis
Transformation can be a brutal process.
Before a butterfly enters the world, a caterpillar dissolves or liquidates its own body - save for cells destined to become adult body parts – and that "protein rich soup" is used as fuel to rebuild. *.
Monet's designers may not have had a butterfly in mind when crafting this multi-textured beauty. They certainly committed to offering their clients a mix of elegance and brute strength.
One way Monet really stood out from the pack, not to mention built a cult following that endures to this day, was using gold and silver plating and semi-precious stones. **
Closer to brass than gold in tone. Very good condition. Enjoyed a gentle wipe but, as always, leave deep cleans to a pro. Secure clasp, checked the pins, and safety chain. About 7-inches in length.
Survivor type. Rather glamourous. Views discomfort as the path to real change. Confident you can handle whatever comes. Eager to provide support.
