ZiZi Designs Makes Donation to Domestic Violence Services of Lancaster County Spring Gala

We were honored with not only an invitation to attend the Spring Gala fundraiser for Domestic Violence Services of Lancaster, but also with a request to submit a piece of jewelry for the silent auction. I had a great time making this necklace - it was a little more labor intensive than most, and I wanted it to be just right, so I re-did a couple of times until I was totally satisfied.
The necklace was named "A Celebration of Dignity and Hope" which is symbolic because of it's purpose in supporting efforts to end domestic violence and provide services for women who are victims of domestic violence, but also the stones used are symbolic in their nature. Garnet is a stone that represents hope and pearls represent dignity. The necklace was made with all sterling silver, except the head pins, which were sterling silver plated.

There were many happy bidders, and in the end the necklace was auctioned off for a nice amount of money. We're pleased to unite with others for such a great cause. Thanks for including us!
