The Flower Maidens Bracelet is inspired by the Act 2 characters of Wagner's opera Parsifal. Parsifal enters Klingsor's garden to find the magical women, but he is slow to respond to their seductions.
I chose shades of green to evoke the lush garden in which the Flower Maidens exist. Glass flowers, leaves and butterflies continue the magic garden theme. A lithe dancer represents the maidens, a flower is their adornments. A butterfly symbolizes the words of the maidens to Parsifal when he resists them, "Must the butterfly chase the flower?".
All "Inspired By..." Series Bracelets come with a card that identifies the symbolism of the charms and colors used.
