In the Blossom's Shade, There are No Strangers

Description: SOLD! 
Handmade decoupage glass pendant of a vintage Cherry Blossom print in Japanese style, clustered with various glass, crystal, and silver beads.

Inspiration:
A quote from Kobayashi Issa, 18th century Zen poet..."In the cherry blossom's shade, there is no such thing as a stranger."   I was inspired by the yearly spring bloom of the Cherry Blossoms along the Tidal Basin in Washington, DC. Every Spring, thousands of visitors come together from all over the world to view the beauty of those blossoms.  In those few weeks of bloom, we are not strangers.
