I am so happy with the way this necklace turned out. For the center piece I used a vintage cap from the 1920's and hammered it flat and combined it with a freshwater pearl. The rest of this one-of-a-kind necklace is made with 1920's steel-cut beads, various natural stone beads, glass and Tourmaline beads. I just love mixing various different colors together. The result is a colorful, whimsical necklace with loads of versitility.
I make delicate, feminine jewelry from rediscovered vintage beads along with pearls, semi-precious beads, Venetian glass beads and many other beads that move me.
I am a restauranteur turned artist at the age of 50. I have always made jewelry (or so it seems)during my 30 year stint in the restaurant business. Along with partners I owned two of my own restaurants. I am now pursuing my artists passions of jewelry and papers arts in hopes of making a living at what I truly love to do. Here I will document my journey through this transition.
