Lilac gardens necklace
One of my favourite spring walks, a slow meander through a path of lilacs. The different greens of spring, so hopeful, and all the shades of purples, and that scent! If only I could embed that scent in this necklace!
My hands made this Lilac Gardens necklace. The beads measure approximately 16 mm x 12 mm to 10 mm x 7 mm. The beads are separated with sterling silver findings. The necklaces closes with a round sterling silver lobster claw. The total length of the necklace is approximately 20" with an extension to 23".
My hands made these beads. I use Effetre glass, a little CIM and occasionally Vetrofond. All my beads are kiln annealed, thoroughly cleaned and inspected. There is no paint on any of my beads, just glass upon glass upon glass.
Please remember the jewelry looks larger than life in the pictures which is why it is important to check the size. I have tried to capture the colours as accurately as possible but many monitors vary.
