Golden Grass

All that glitters is not gold but there is a grass that does look like gold and this is my first time seeing it and knowing about it.  I was amazed by this stall in the St James's Market Piccadilly.  It is absolutely beautiful and fascinating. Golden grass grows in Brazil and is woven into all sorts of trinkets and baskets... the botanical name is Syngonanthus nitens.. The Golden Grass Company Hand made eco-friendly jewelry. 


I could not resist buying the bracelets... 
and good price too £5 each or 3 for £12 and they look so rich and elegant 
They are lightweight too!
