I'm not quite sure where the inspiration for this piece came from.
I think I had this shape at the back of my mind, probably from some building.

It's quite a large piece - 2,5 inches from top to bottom and also across at the widest point.
But I love big and bold jewelry - although I'm quite short - can't imagine what I'd do it I were tall!
