Enter a realm of enchantment and timeless wonder with the Carousel of Dreams Pendant. This hand crafted masterpiece captures the magic of a fairytale carousel brought to life with William L Griffiths mechanical moving parts as a modern day automata.
This miniature carousel is a marvel of mechanical ingenuity and delicate beauty. Three horses, one white, one rose and one yellow gold, rotate in a mesmerizing dance when the tiny handle is wound, and are reflected in minuscule diamond mirrors. The tiny handle is set with a cabochon cut ruby.
Suspended beneath this enchanting carousel are four sapphire briolettes, set in flower like clasps, their hues as vibrant as the dreams they inspire. Red, yellow, pink, and blue, these gemstones tremble gently with every movement, casting prismatic reflections.
Encircling the rim of the carousel, delicate seed pearls, imitating light globes, add an air of fairground wonder. The roof of the carousel is adorned with a rainbow of pear-shaped sapphires, and tiny pavé set diamonds sit around the perimeter and cover a semi-sphere holding the pendant loop in place. The base of the loop is also studded with a single brilliant diamond.
