Another giveaway, same rules.  But this time I'm going to add something.  If you are a minor, make sure you get permissions from your parents or guardians before entering.  

This necklace was featured in the Autumn 2013 issue of Jewelry Affaire magazine.  If I get 100+ comments on this, I will draw for a second winner and give away the other rosette necklace featured in the article.  

To enter the contest you must comment below.  Each one of the following types of comments counts for a vote.  I will use Random.org to determine the winner, so make sure to make each entry count by listing them INDIVIDUALLY.  International players are more than welcome, this prize is very light weight.  ;)
