Design Details

Unique Properties: The Magnolia and Red Cardinal Necklace is made of white gold, diamonds, rubies, onyx, and coral. The necklace features a magnolia pendant with petals crafted from white gold and encrusted with diamonds and rubies. The main part of the magnolia is set with many vibrant rubies, representing vitality. The necklace chain is made of diamonds alternating, providing a dramatic contrast to the coral and onyx red cardinal and magnolia pendant.

Research: Research for this necklace design included studying the symbolism and meaning behind magnolias and red cardinals, as well as exploring the properties and qualities of diamonds, rubies, onyx, and coral.
