Miju "A Tragedy" Necklace by Bailee Wolfson
Canadian jewelery outfit Miju's latest creation is a delicately poetic necklace of a bird, inspired by an image from a timeless children's bedtime story. The new design recreates the character in 2" x 3" acrylic pendant with two ruby-red beads hanging from chains standing in for drops of blood.
Its larger scale, juxtaposition of materials and macabre subject matter make for an irreverently elegant accessory. Available with either black or red beads, you also have the option of a black or gold chain.
To purchase for $48 or browse more jewelry go to Miju.
