She performed with a live snake draped across her body like jewelry, made the Folies Bergère her cathedral, and moved through the world as if joy were a physical force. She left us this: \u003cem\u003e“The violinist had his violin, the painter his palette. All I had was myself. I was the instrument I must care for.”\u003c\/em\u003e That is the whole philosophy. That is this piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery material in this necklace was chosen for what it carries. Gold hematite chevrons were placed together by hand to evoke the shimmy and shimmer of snakeskin — percussive, alive with motion. Silver shimmer obsidian — the ancient truth-teller — mirrors the unflinching honesty at the heart of Baker’s art. Amber lampwork glass pillow beads glow as if lit from within — the warmth and fire of her stage presence made tangible. Rose gold hematite spacers hold the composition together with understated precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the center: a black glass snake pendant with a subtle amber shimmer, found in a box at an estate sale — unremarkable among ordinary things, until the moment it wasn’t. Set into a 24k Art Deco-inspired bail, it became the centerpiece it was always meant to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silver shimmer obsidian · Amber lampwork glass pillow beads · Rose gold hematite · Black glass snake pendant with amber shimmer (estate-sourced) · 24k Art Deco-inspired bail · Handmade gold hematite chevron chain · 18k gold-plated sterling silver findings\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA tribute to a singular age — and the untameable women who made it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BohoHaus Jewelry","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43892180353111,"sku":null,"price":148.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0642\/0017\/9799\/files\/tempImage50yIIm.jpg?v=1779558902","url":"https:\/\/bohohausjewelry.org\/products\/josephine","provider":"BohoHaus Jewelry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
