Mother's Wild Columbine
Along a white picket fence my mother has grown these curious flowers. Beyond the delicate petals are tentacle-like extensions. Much like people, what you first see is not the full picture. If you look deeper you will find characteristics worth exploring further.
It measures 45 mm x 32 mm and has an antiqued blue/gray patina on fine silver with two bails positioned on the top to hang horizontally as shown in the picture. (Chain for illustration only and not included.)

Blossoms for Dinner
These were blossoms to Chris's (my husband) squash plants. You can actually batter dip and fry them up and eat them, but you must pick them in the day time while they are open. So he picks them and puts them in the frig. and they closed in there. Well, when you took them out, the next morning the flowers opened up and a cute little bug (the one on the leaf in the picture) flew out. He was in the frig the whole night long.... LOL. I guess we both had plans to eat the blossoms.
It measures 46 mm x 21 mm and has a patina on fine silver with a tube bail positioned on the top to hang horizontally as shown in the picture. (Chain for illustration only and not included.) |
