• The Black Widow
  Mourning allows one to accept and overcome death, a tragic experience in life. It is associated with loss and grief. In the Victorian era, people wore mourning jewellery to remember the lost loved one. Not long ago in some cultures it was custom for the widow to dress in black for a period of two years.

  Today, customs associated with mourning have been lost and my intention is to create a range of fashion and glamorous mourning jewellery, which relates to our time and fits perfectly with the modern black widow.
