Fun Fact: The Wondrous Branch Brooch was inspired by the fairies from the film Pan's Labyrinth (2006), who were plants or living organisms that transform into flying creatures. In this piece, this idea of transformation is reflected through a fleeing creature that lands on the upper part of the chest, made out of leafy wings and a wooden body.

In La Playa Statement Bar Ring, a long boulder opal captures a glimpse of a beach ("una playa" in Spanish), with water flowing over the sand. It includes the signature rosebuds found within Angely Martinez Jewelry, both in silver on the ring shank, and as a voluminous pearl, sitting right where the Opal split. This big pearl unifies the entire beach, surrounded by other tiny rosebuds before blooming. For the Jewelry Collector. Part of the Aqualescence Collection
