Ever since Cassandra's first trip to Asia where she woke early to go for a swim every morning, finding their petals strewn along the beach as an offering to the Gods, frangipani have been one of her favourite flowers. In Rio do Janeiro they were everywhere. Cassandra picked up one of these waxy white flowers in the Jardim Botanico, and twisted it in her hand observing how the petals curl into the stem. Back in the workshop Cassandra tried cutting translucent gemstones to mimic these petals and found by adding small facets to the petals the earrings came to life, catching the light, as the wearer moves. And the small diamond in the centre adds a twinkle at the centre of the flower. From the journey to Brazil.
