Lucky Hummingbird Jewellery Set

The Lucky Hummingbird pieces are sold three ways, which is unusual and genuinely useful. Take the necklace alone, the earrings alone, or both together at a lower combined price than buying them separately. The hummingbird motif runs across both pieces so they read as a deliberate pair rather than as two items that happen to share a theme.

The necklace is a single pendant on a fine chain, sitting at a length that works against most necklines without needing adjustment. The earrings repeat the motif at a smaller scale so they support the necklace rather than duplicating it, which is the difference between a matching set and an over-matched one.

Buy the pair if it is a gift, since a set presents far better than a single piece and the combined price makes the second item close to free. Buy either alone if you are adding to what you already own. From Marlowe & Rue. Remove before showering, swimming and sleeping. Store dry in a pouch or box rather than loose. Plated finishes wear fastest against moisture, perfume and hairspray.
