So many things to love about this little locket . . . I'm not sure where to begin. Perhaps the most striking (and least obvious) element is the real branch covered in recycled sterling silver which houses the gold starfish and aquamarine stones. AND it is handmade in Hawaii, so even if you cannot be at the beach, you can certainly net some of those soothing island vibes.

this is such a precious little necklace. this could so easily become someone's signature piece of jewelry. i love it!
