A rose is a rose is a rose is a lovely mantra.
But sometimes you just yearn for a bloom of a different sort.
So may we recommend Agapantha, the jewelry company named after a kind of African flower?
The collection’s anything but ordinary and includes semiprecious gems draped in gold chains, interesting groupings of stones, bunches of pearls, and leaf-shaped charms.
The Andrea earrings feature teardrop-shaped jade or quartz surrounded by a circular gold strand. The Melissa lariat is best for versatility; the single chain doesn’t have a clasp, so it can be draped or tied in a variety of styles.
Our favorite, however, is the Laura line, which dangles leaf-shaped stones in the color of your choice on simply stranded earrings and necklaces.
But anything from the line’s varied assortment is sure to make you blossom.
In fact, you’re likely to find everything’s come up roses — er, Agapantha.
