Delicious colors of greens, taupe and denim blues play off each other in this necklace. This very organic design was created around the large green chalk turquoise pieces, each wirewrapped and linked together by antiqued twisted rings and my handmade lampwork glass beads.

The chain is a fabulous hammered and antiqued circle link and the clasp is a beautifully detailed flower toggle.

approx. 18″ in length

Not a locket this time just a fancy little altered, up cycled/recycled vintage lock. A fun little finding to use as a pendant. Little might be the wrong word to use though as it measures in at about 2 1/2″. The vintage sparkly swarovski bit used to be part of an earring but found a perfect spot on this lock that’s sure to dazzle! This necklace is big and bold from it’s textured and antiqued cable links down to the fabulous pendant that holds it together. I haven’t a clue what the combination is but I think that adds to the fun of this piece. Perhaps you can crack the code during that boring meeting
