Oranges and Lemons necklace

“Oranges and lemons” say the bells of St. Clement's,
“You owe me three farthings”, say the bells of St. Martin's...........
Inspired by the above nursery rhyme, this pretty necklace may well get you singing those nursery rhymes again.
A small tree is impressed into fine silver and if you look carefully you will see that some of the fruit of the tree is highlighted with yellow or orange resin. A subtle effect - but gives a nice idea of oranges and lemons! It looks just like one of those citrus trees you see in an orangery in a stately home in England.
The necklace is approximately 4cm by 2cm and is supplied on a 40cm or 45 cm (16 or 18 inch) sterling silver chain.
