I made this pendant by capturing a large labradorite coin bead with the fringe method for beading around a core bead. In particular, I used variation of the
Rivoli Sunflower design for the pendant. I adore the blue glass beads in this piece and the way the inclusions shimmer in the light. I think the shimmer works well with the blue flash of the labradorite stone.
For the necklace part, I used a variation herringbone weave that I described in my Toggle Clasp & Cable pattern.

A stunning and unique piece!
ReplyDeleteThank you EWA. I'm quite sure I couldn't remake this one if I tried.

ReplyDeleteI love labradorite. The piece is well balanced- the embellishments are perfect.
I always struggle with the necklace (that part that is not the focal/pendant) mostly because I want something substantial but if I put in the time to make a rope it will cost too much.
