MADE TO ORDER Bougainvillea Bouquet

Description

**** PLEASE NOTE: this item is made to order and I do not currently hold one in stock. If you would like a Bougainvillea Bouquet necklace please 'convo' me and I will make one especially for you. This means that there will be a four to five week delay in shipping your necklace as there is a LOT of work involved in this piece. I do have lots of other pieces available in my shop right now though ****

This piece has been entirely hand woven by me using thousands of little seed beads and is an original design. Each flower takes approximately 3 to 4 hours to weave.

This necklace is made in two separate halves. Each half has a beaded green rope measuring approximately 13 inches with a bougainvillea bract attached to one end. The other end is attached to a removable clasp. There are nine removable bougainvillea bracts, each with a hanging loop. The necklace is designed to be worn with a knot at the front, just above the bracts and this results in a necklace which is approximately 17½ inches long . This design feature enables the wearer to wear as many or as few bougainvillea bracts as they please, a simple two, or the full eye catching cluster of eleven!

Each bract measures approximately 1¼ inches from top to bottom and approximately 2 inches from the top of the hanging loop to the tip of each bract. To add a touch of realistic interest, some bracts have 1, 2 or 3 'flowers' showing and some have none.

All metal components are sterling silver and the clasp is a pretty little Hill Tribe silver flower.

As this is a made to order listing, I can make the bracts in other colours (I have a rainbow collection of beads!) and the rope in different lengths - just 'convo' me with your requirements. I can also make matching earrings.

Get noticed in this striking statement necklace!
