Mary - Dutch Glory

Although the blues are beautiful, this design called for some colour! After all, the flowers and plants in Queen Mary's Botanic Gardens weren't all blue, were they?

The pattern of leaves, small flowers, ornaments and the characteristic tulip are colored in this earring after the many exotic flowers that were in the gardens. Think of the orange trees and of course the tulip.

You wanted to make a statement, right? ;) Combine these earrings with a plain dress or wear them casual with jeans. Anything goes!

There is something about...Mary

The showpiece of this collection is Mary . Named after Mary Stuart the wife of King William III. She was a true influencer in her time (1662-1695) and was often found in the botanical garden of her Palace Het Loo . In these gardens she collected a rich collection of plants and objects from all over the world.

I based the design of this collection on, among other things, the beautiful garden vases that she had made to order by the porcelain factory in Delft, the symmetry of the baroque garden and the many exotic flowers and plants.
