The David Yurman Shipwreck Coib Amulet is an extraordinary piece of jewelry that tells a story of adventure and mystery. It is inspired by an ancient shipwreck off the coast of Panama on the island of Coiba, where a treasure trove of artifacts was discovered. The amulet is crafted by renowned jewelry designer David Yurman, known for his exquisite creations that blend artistry with luxury. This particular piece holds the allure of an enchanting tale of the sea. The shipwreck on Coiba Island held significant cultural and historical treasures from various civilizations that spanned centuries. It was this rich history and the allure of lost treasure that captivated David Yurman and served as the inspiration for the Shipwreck Coib Amulet.
A very hardy flowering shrub good for full sun locations - the hotter your climate, however, the more shade the plant will require. Perfect for a mixed container. Good for groupings and in mass plantings, shrub and perennial borders, as a specimen, a screen or a hedge.
Really easy to grow, and a great plant for beginners and more experienced gardeners alike, it produces its flowers on strong stems which means that the branches won t bend under the weight and they make great cut flowers too. These hydrangeas are not as fussy about soil pH as some of their mophead cousins, but do appreciate a fertile, moist position in a place where they are shaded from the sun for part of the day.
It was this rich history and the allure of lost treasure that captivated David Yurman and served as the inspiration for the Shipwreck Coib Amulet. The amulet showcases Yurman's mastery of design and craftsmanship. It is meticulously handcrafted in sterling silver and features an intricately carved shipwreck scene, complete with authentic details reminiscent of the artifacts discovered on Coiba Island.
Hydrangea paniculata Magical® Candle
Immense, porcelain-white flower heads appear backlit as if to create a surreal glow of soft, yellow flowers above tall, erect stems. A robust grower, the dense, lacy panicles of this variety are among the most beautiful in its class.
The family hydrangea is valued for endless varieties of flowering shrubs and vines, which bloom in spring and are appropriate for the shade garden. That is of course, until we consider Hydrangea paniculata, the panicle hydrangea. This is where we find some showy specimens for full sun. Paniculatas flower reliably each summer regardless of climate, pruning, or in most cases, the pH of your soil. Spectacular in the landscape, these no-fuss beauties generally form large, vase-shaped shrubs that support showy, cone-shaped flowers. Until now. We are proud to be working with Kolster, B.V., who represents Boot & Co., a fabulous breeding company focused on panicle hydrangeas, in The Netherlands. The new selections coming from this partnership breeding program are sure to please with their colorful, full-bodied blooms and shorter , more compact habits.

Reviews for "The David Yurman Shipwreck Coib Amulet: A Meeting of Art and Archaeology"
1. John - 1/5 stars - I was really disappointed with the David Yurman Shipwreck Coib Amulet. The price tag on this necklace is extremely high, but the quality does not match up. The pendant itself is poorly crafted and looks cheap. The chain is also flimsy and prone to breaking. I expected much better from a luxury brand like David Yurman. Save your money and invest in something else.
2. Emily - 2/5 stars - I had high hopes for the David Yurman Shipwreck Coib Amulet, but it failed to impress me. The design is unique and the concept of a shipwreck-inspired pendant is intriguing, but the execution fell short. The amulet lacks the attention to detail and intricate craftsmanship that I have come to expect from David Yurman. The overall appearance feels bulky and heavy, making it uncomfortable to wear. The price is also excessive for the quality you receive. I would not recommend this particular piece from David Yurman's collection.
3. Rebecca - 3/5 stars - While the David Yurman Shipwreck Coib Amulet is an interesting piece, it didn't live up to my expectations. The pendant looks better in the photos than in person. The silver coating on the charm started peeling off after a few wears, leaving it looking worn and cheap. Additionally, the chain feels flimsy and I'm concerned about its durability. For the high price point, I expected better quality and longevity. I would recommend considering other options before investing in this amulet.
