Ode to Spring Necklace and Earrings |
You can almost smell a new mown lawn when you look at the yummy (and very unusual) green kyanite in this necklace. The kyanite has a smooth tumbled finish which makes it feel soft and rather lovable. The faceted green garnet beads in the shorter strand are full of interesting inclusions. The little flat pearls and vermeil spacers make a very rich composition. Both strands are hand-knotted on silk. The earrings are made with the kyanite and pearls along with some seed beads to give them nice length and volume. The lever backs are 14k gold. This necklace is featured in Penelope Diamanti's gorgeous book, Beadazzled: Where Beads & Inspiration Meet (link below). |
