--- Update April 21st: this item has been listed in the Etsy shop :) ---

OK, I was going to wait a bit but the first one, Kyoto Spring which launched a couple of days ago, already got reserved so I feel bad. This is a sneak preview of the next one which will only be up in my Etsy shop probably next week or whenever I get round to preparing the listing.

Summer Sorbet was the actually one which started me off wanting to do all four seasons. I wrapped the glossy rounds to each other to form the chain (oh gawd this took longer than expected - it's not quite so effortless to wrap with thicker gauge wire!) and finished off with a large slab of aventurine, tangerine jade (which is not actually jade - only jadeite and nephrite are true jades - but some other stone, damn I forget what BUT it's still really pretty and vibrant!) and a handmade swirly hook.

Summer Sorbet
The combination of colours was too juicy not to make me think of an icy cool sorbet on a hot day. Such relief! Yuzu would be my first choice. And, you might find it nerdy but I actually like lemon gelato. So let's see... in the bracelet above I would imagine tangerine and yuzu of course, but I also see blood orange, grapefruit, lime, pineapple, and even mint!! What do you see?
