Everyone Loves a Party, People!

And everyone loves party people!


I saw this pendant in one of my vendor catalogs and had to have it. It's cloisonne and features profiles of people at what I imagine to be a cocktail party. Smokin' and drinkin'! I believe I even see a tuxedo.




The bead is actually a hollow 'flying saucer' shape, with the same image on both sides. It's almost 3 inches in diameter.






I knew I wanted to hang this pendant on a very simple cord and that the cord's color would be important.


The pendant itself has lots of rich warm brown tones, but there are a few pops of aqua that I think are not only beautiful, but also complement the earth tones in the rest of the piece.


The cord is a satin ribbon finished with a sterling silver clasp. I sold at least one of these at the UCAL Holiday Sale, but kept one for myself because I think it's a fun piece, and definitely unique. Its irreverance garners a lot of interest when I wear it.

Price: $28.
