brooch

This glass enamel rose brooch is one of my favourite pieces of jewellery.  I’ve had it since I was about ten years old when I discovered it at an estate sale and fell in love with it. Oddly enough, I never had the opportunity to wear it until this month. It’s never too late!

When I wear it, I tend to think a lot about the person who owned it before I did. I wonder if she loved it as much as I do.

"Conventionality is not morality. Self-righteousness is not religion. To attack the first is not to assail the last. To pluck the mask from the face of the Pharisee, is not to lift an impious hand to the Crown of Thorns."

--From the preface to Jane Eyre, by Charlotte Brontë
