A metaphor for Paradise,
THE SEAGRAPE COLLECTION interprets that lush botanical in precious metals. Accented with scintillating gemstones that recall the sea grape’s velvety fruit, the ocean’s salty
spray is recreated in the work’s texture.

Each voluptuous leaf design is hand-crafted and signed. Gemstones: Red, and green Mali garnet, diamond, and pearl. Enameling by Tricia Lachowiec;

A sprawling evergreen growing to 50’ high, the Sea Grape halts beach erosion, and is a natural habitat for sea turtles. Its fruit is used to make ‘seaside jelly’; its wood is prized for cabinetry.
