Featuring her signature dark humor and beadwork, this necklace is unlike anything in your collection. A rabbit, beautifully illustrated with watercolor enamel, is brought to life in this piece and suspended from hand woven cotton thread.

Meghan Schmiedel's jewelry is inspired by the coexistence of life and death within nature and the fluidity of beauty and decay resulting from it. Beads and pearls transform the physical morbidness of death into eye-catching and enticing jewelry while serving as tokens of remembrance that new growth comes up from decay.

Size: Necklace is approximately 30" in length. Pendant is approximately 4" in length and 2" in width.

This piece is part of our Fall 2024 exhibition From The Garden, From The Grave, featuring three artists addressing the dichotomy of life and death. Challenging the notion that death can only be melancholy, the work in this show will include imagery of plant life and animals in all stages. Click here to view the entire exhibition.
