Pearls

If I had to select one single picture from this New Year's celebration, it would be this one:



This is me wearing my Grandma's pearl necklace.

Real pearls, with yellow gold,the chain being made of white gold too.There is something pure and almost religious in wearing precious materials such as those. Refined craftmanship, and also, all the troubles and the work it cost to be able to afford such a jewel. It bears a part of my family history so to speak.

And being allowed by my mother, who is now the Entitled Guardian of such a beautiful necklace...I really felt special that night.


"If you want to wear it on your wedding day, it is okay by me" she said...
