Joan Rivers Green-Faced Tri-Color Peony Ornate Egg Pendant | Vintage American Jewelry

Beautiful peonies gracefully unfurl, with three flowers on three facets, each in a distinct, exquisite color. Vines intertwine at the base of the ornate egg, forming an elegant motif. Both delicate and unique. Hand-selected by the shop owner, only one of each piece is available, and all come with an extension chain. Worn alone on a chain, it's a minimalist pendant. Paired with the extension chain and fastened to a necklace, it transforms into a Y-necklace. String multiple together to create a bracelet or necklace. My favorite way to wear them is to layer several at varying lengths—creating beautiful dimension, utterly charming, and so eye-catching!😍 . . 〖 The Ornate Egg 〗 While Easter is a significant Christian holiday commemorating the resurrection of Jesus Christ three days after his crucifixion, the use of eggs to symbolize new life predates Christianity. Ancient Western cultures believed eggs possessed two lives: the first being "birth," and the second, "rebirth." Early Mesopotamian Christians dyed eggs red to honor the precious blood shed by Jesus Christ. On Easter, Catholic believers would have their eggs painted red, blessed by a priest, and given as gifts to friends, marking the earliest origin of gifting ornate eggs. ・ 〖 Joan Rivers 〗 The eponymous founder, Joan Rivers, was a formidable force in film, television, and fashion from the 1960s to the 1990s, captivating countless fans with her sharp wit and humor.
