Calathea Makoyana - A plant signifying new beginnings.
The Brazilian prayer plant Calathea Makoyana is more commonly known as the peacock plant or also sometimes as cathedral windows. The Calathea symbolises a new beginning. This comes from the famous expression 'to turn over a new leaf', as this is exactly what the plant does when it gets dark. Calathea therefore makes an excellent gift to someone who is starting afresh.
This lightweight statement necklace is inspired by nature. Hand-crafted in her Southsea home studio by independent jewellery designer Mica Peet, the leaf is made from matt finish, gold-plated, nickel-free brass, and hangs a from a 20 inch gold-plated chain.
All chains and metal findings are nickel-free and hypoallergenic.
