New Necklace at long last...

Hey everyone!

Well its been a while since I posted any pictures because its been chaos around here the past couple of weeks. I started this necklace about 2 weeks ago and just finally managed to get it finished last night. I had to move house at very short notice because of a flood which meant packing up all my beadies :(

Anyway here it is finally, the finished piece...

Its made up of large orange glass lentils with a really nice finish and handmade hammered links. Finished with a handmade, hammered, hook and eye clasp. The wire is 16gauge and silver plated copper. It will be listed in my etsy shop later tonight, if you fancy having a browse!

Thanks for looking, Hope you all had a fab weekend!

Much Love

Rachel
