A New Challenge
The Request: Sparkly bib necklace
The client wanted one that was sparkly and had a garden them. Not green but colorful. Now, it is a common thing to think about Swarovski crystals when you say “sparkly” right? But I did not want to be ordinary but wanted this project to be extraordinary!
I could not work with diamonds because the client had a budget as well. So why not Russian diamonds?
Not quite.
But almost there 🙂
On my desk….
….are some of the gemstones and pearls I will be using for my Christmas collection 🙂
South Sea Shell Pearls
Rock crystal quartz free form nuggets, faceted crystal rondelles, German crystals,
Herkimer diamonds!
Carved Blueberry quartz
Alexandrite, Denim quartz, Opalite (Tiffany Stone), Acqua quartz,
Kyanite, Yellow Opal, Black German crystal
And what I am currently working on:
Peridot crystal quartz and south sea shell pearls wire wrapped in 10k solid gold
