Hokay.
These pieces are done for work, at the request of the boss, and are for sale through work. However, they's pricier than what I usually do. (They're actually more money for the pieces-parts alone than I generally charge for mine. Either I'm buying cheaper stuff, or I need to realize that I srsly need to up my prices. Ahem. It's generally cheaper stuff, not as many, etc. etc. etc.)
If you're interested, I could probably recreate some of these. If you just want to ooo and ahhh, well, that's good, too. :) Some turned out nicer than I expected.
Colors on this one are frelled. It's topaz/light colorado topaz, which is slightly browner than the more orange topaz. But I took the shot twice and I didn't feel like dinking for half an hour or more to get it exactly right. Beads are gold filled and Preciosa lead crystal, a leading competator to Swarovski.
Preciosa Jet AB bicones and sterling.
Capri and Aqua Preciosa and sterling.
This is a fun one. It's a bracelet, not a necklace, and I'm not sure I could do justice to a necklace with the tubes. But it's sterling double curved tubes, and sterling mirror beads, and light siam AB 4mm Preciosa crystal (with matching seed bead accents). Pricy bugger, too.
Hope you enjoy 'em. They were kind of fun to make.
