Gift to the Gods

Back in ancient Greece upon an altar for the goddess Athena sat this bouquet.  It is a gift from a new bride to ask for health and luck in her new marriage.  It’s a bouquet of gold, white, and silver lilies.  The larger lilies actually have sterling silver seed beads.  The bouquet stems are wrapped in ribbon and placed in a large topaz chalice.  At any time the bouquet can be removed to walk down the aisle once again.
