The Purple Heart is a tribute to the amazing women we are blessed to share our journey with.  Strong, loving, courageous and fearless.  My mother was -- and will always be -- my hero.
 
This stunning piece features a lampwork glass cabochon by the talented Sue Nottoli Wade.  The purple heart includes Sue's personal touch with silver beads accenting the center.  It is set in sterling silver and surrounded by a fine silver heart bezel.  As shown in the photos, The Purple Heart can be worn as a brooch (which can also stand on its own) and a pendant.  Since I do love options, I've also fashioned an accessory piece that can also be worn on it's own.  The fabulous floral lampwork cabochon by Vika Safronova matches the beautiful purples in the heart perfectly.  It is set in a fine silver scallop bezel on sterling silver.  The necklace, also sterling silver,  is a 24-inch Cordino adjustable chain with lobster clasp.
