I love the shape of the flowers, in particular, but this is pretty amazing overall. It would be a pretty awesome necklace to wear (if I didn't have sensitive skin, that is).

I could babble on about the many visual and literary parallels it draws, but no one wants to be bombarded with overeducated verbal frippery.
This one is an easy favorite.
