DAISY CHAIN - Bracelet

Description

~o~ DAISY CHAIN ~o~

I wonder just how much time I spent making daisy chains as a child....... countless hours of harvesting the pure white blooms, to carefully connecting each to form a necklace or bracelet...... I guess some things never change :)

A modern and dramatic twist on the classic daisy chain, this show-stopping, elegantly bohemian bracelet is part of my 'Lace' collection.... a marriage of techniques including crochet, forging and wire wrapping, creating wire 'lace' embellished with sumptuous and exquisite gems.

Crocheted circles of fine silver wire have been topped with a collection of 'blooms' or 'daisies' created with sumptuous, lustrous freshwater pearls and darkly intense black Spinel. Each flower sits proud within its nest of oxidized silver wire, the oxidization highlighting the gems and pearls set within. Each of the nests or discs have been carefully and lovingly wired together to create the focal section of the bracelet. The lengths of the bracelet were created with textured Italian silver chain, fastened with a secure lobster clasp. The bracelet is also fitted with an extender chain, finished with coordinating gems.

Bold and beautiful- I adore this bracelet, it was a joy to create. A truly one of a kind piece of art jewelry, created with exquisite gems and pearls - a wonderful addition to any jewelry collection.

All gems are AA-AAA graded. All metals are oxidized fine silver.

Thank you so much for looking.
