Indie-pendant #0004 - "N'goa"

Here's the fruit of today's effort. In the end I decided to finish up the accent piece for my latest Indie-pendant, this design is called N'goa



















I'm considering keeping this one for myself. It's a nice size (5.5 x 5.5cm) and it feels good when it's on.

Whilst visiting the Pre-columbian gold museum(!) the last time I was in San Jose, I found and fell in love with this...















... and decided that I would use the color combination myself. Simple inspiration!

Jaded

For those interested in culture and history, I am also now onto uploading my images from the national Jade museum, San Jose, Costa Rica. If - like me - you thought that Jade was a specific shade of kind of woodsy-minty green, then you - like me - were quite mistaken! I was amazed by the sheer range of colors and shades that these pieces displayed. From blackish "meconium" green, to an almost lapis lazulae blue. And I can't imagine how heavy some of these pieces must be. Take a look at this! A choker!



















I will continue to add to these images for a while longer.

Feel free to browse my Jade album here.
