Oh you didn’t know? The once forbidden fruit made right there in Welchman Hall? Just like we, it ohhh so sweet.
This section honors the grapefruit with a refreshing, colourful combination. Akin to catching your taste buds on the first bite, it was designed to catch your eyes on the first look. Bright and tart.
The neck piece and dangle elements on the arms and legs reference the fruit in its flowering stage, while the draped strings of yellow jewels represent the fruit at full bloom.
The gems used mimic its pulp and that of other citrus fruits found on the island. Gold stands out in the design to also pay homage to the goddess Pomona and celebrate the fruitful abundance found ‘bout hay.
