Individual blossoms rise from forged stems that gather into a sculptural composition, terminating in a round lapis lazuli accent that anchors the design with rich color and visual balance. Hammered hoops connect the centerpiece to Sterling Roots' signature Cori chain, creating a seamless transition from sculptural focal point to hand-forged chain.
