For this whimsical necklace, I made 6 beaded beads, including 4 Nuts and Washers and a Tila Icosahedron and an Octahedral Cluster. Then, I
added 5 borosilicate and lampwork glass beads torched by 5 different
artists. Together they make a pallet of blues and silvery greens. This
is an unusual and strand of beads, eclectic yet harmonious, and never
to be repeated.
They're all strung on a 26 inch piece of silk
and cotton cord, that I twisted and plied on my spinning wheel in colors
that match the beads. I tied sliding knots so you can adjust the
necklace to wear it long or short. Alternately, You could use this set
as a beginning of a more elaborate necklace, but I would wear them just
as they are, strung on cord.
Includes 4 inches (10 cm) of beads. Largest beaded bead (the doughnut) measures an inch (25 mm).
Thanks for looking!
It reminds me of the sea.
