Birds in the Hand Pendant Necklace

An ornate silver-tone hand holds a small gathering of birds and flowers beneath layers of mossy green glass. Amber-colored faceted beads carry that intricate pendant, bringing warmth to its mixed-metal details.

Why it caught our eye

The hand is such an unusual focal point, and the birds and flowers make it worth examining closely. Worn over a simple sweater, the entire composition has room to be appreciated.

Details

• Silver-tone hand, bird, and floral components
• Green glass and mixed accent beads

• Combination of vintage, repurposed, and contemporary components

Elements by Jill Schwartz · Holiday Collection 2026

We’ve been choosing Jill Schwartz’s work for more than thirty years, and she still surprises us. Her jewelry brings together vintage finds, unexpected materials, and wonderfully considered color in compositions that reward a closer look. A tiny bird, a velvet accent, an old button: in Jill’s hands, each becomes part of something entirely her own.

Over the years, we’ve carried her jewelry, picture frames, and paperweights. We once visited her Great Barrington, Massachusetts workshop to choose individual Christmas gifts for our staff—a particularly happy afternoon of finding just the right piece for each person.

This collection continues that long affection: expressive jewelry with an artist’s eye for detail, a sense of history, and plenty of imagination.

Collection will be available early November 2026.
