Grotto

Displaying jewelry on fruit or in this case a nut (many people call coconut a fruit, but it is not) may seem curious or peculiar. However, I think the dichotomy provided by the hardness of one versus the softness of the other provides an element of interest that would not be evident if the piece were displayed alone.

In this instance as well, the coconut's shape and the fact that it is the essence of life of the coconut palm auguments the symbolism provided by the cross.
