With most of my work this season I have come to the realization that I am in a ‘bigger is better’ frame of mind. I am leaning more towards chunky statement type pieces. Also, I find I enjoy mixing gold and silver a lot and this piece reflects that. I began with only an inkling of what I was going for and as I often am, was pleasantly surprised by the final outcome.
The necklace consists of a cluster of freshwater pearls and golden swirled artglass. I used black beads inside the cluster that would barely be seen, to complement the sterling plated chain and tie the piece together.
I had lots of fun with this and it turned out to be all I imagined and more.
