Bountiful Harvest

There is nothing quite like this time of year. "When the trees their summer splendor change to raiment red and gold, when the summer moon turns mellow, and the nights are getting cold; When the squirrels hide their acorns, and the woodchucks disappear; Then we know that it is autumn, loveliest season of the year." (Carol L. Riser, Autumn) It is as if all of nature is waiting to energize your soul with its most intricate art forms. 

Harvest time marks the end of the growing season and is the focus of many seasonal celebrations. Celebrate this Bountiful Harvest of pearls in designs inspired by the season.

The Jewelry:

 

"There is music in the meadows, in the air --
Autumn is here;
Skies are gray, but hearts are mellow,
Leaves are crimson, brown, and yellow;
Pines are soughing, birches stir,
And the Gipsy trail is fresh beneath the fir.
 

There is rhythm in the woods, and in the fields,
Nature yields:
And the harvest voices crying,
Blend with Autumn zephyrs sighing;
Tone and color, frost and fire,
Wings the nocturne Nature plays upon her lyre."~William Stanley Braithwaite, Lyric of Autumn
