This elegant one of a kind necklace was created for the Etsy Beadweavers July 2008 Challenge, themed 'A Midsummer Night's Dream'.
The deep blues and greens are reminiscent of a night time forest, with beams of white moonlight reaching through the canopy. If I were a fairy, I would frequent this forest.
This necklace took nearly 20 hours to create, using thousands of seed beads. It began as a freeform netted collar, to which the fringe and other embellishments were added. The oval pendant is Labradorite - a variety of feldspar that glistens and changes in the light, while the green pendant is a river shell. The other embellishments are unidentified 'natural stones' with a tigers eye look. I have used a toggle style flower and leaf closure as a clasp. Fireline was used for extra strength and durability so you can treasure this necklace for years to come.
This necklace is approximately 16 to 17 inches long from clasp to clasp. The pendants hang 6 inches below the neckline of the collar.
