SK #LONG Mardi Gras Mania (S)

Doubloons, parades, bead strings galore
Wild revelry descends
It's Mardi Gras! Masked faces rule,
So let the fun begin!

What better way to commemorate the mayhem and madness than cascading masks, plumes and spiraling confetti? Brilliantly hand embroidered in the skilled hands of Chinese artisans, the jeweled tones pop against a field of midnight, and twinkle with lush applications of hand beading. The ensemble is royal in lush purple velvet burn out, and completed by jewelry designer Ronda Terry's button of kiln-fired dichroic glass.
