Spring on the Hill — Texas Wildflower Branch Necklace
Every April in Central Texas, the highway shoulders and limestone hills turn electric blue overnight, and families pull over on the side of the road just to take pictures in the wildflowers. For anyone who grew up in the Hill Country, a bluebonnet isn’t just a flower—it is the smell of warm spring wind and the feeling of coming home.
Designed by founder Mia Vellamere and handcrafted in our Salado, Texas workshop right in the heart of bluebonnet country, Spring on the Hill captures a blooming wildflower stem in sturdy 1.3 mm (16-gauge) metal with delicate 0.4 mm gold-on-gold laser-etched petals. It arrives on a custom-engraved blonde maple wood keepsake card inside a linen gift box.
