The Story

If sweetness is at your core, the Pisum sativum is your emblem. The design of this necklace is sexy, modeled from a few of Janet’s favorite pea varieties, like Karina, Green Arrow, Marvel, and Penelope.

Look carefully at this substantial necklace. Look at it one way and you can make out the secret shapes in the shell. Turn it over to reveal a peek of the inner treasures: six sugary seeds, deliciously plump. Which goes to show that roundness is just another beautiful shape that can go head-to-head with the slender Green Bean
How to Wear

The opening of the pea pod represents the beauty that emerges from oneself. Wear it with overalls, apron, or better yet, a sexy leopard print jumpsuit.
