How much do I love this necklace?
A lot. As in A LOT a lot.
Last Christmas, when I was in Chicago, I found these beautiful faceted briolette beads. They're a beautiful lavendar, and made from milk glass (which is exactly what it sounds like: milky glass). They measure 12mm top to bottom.
I've mixed the briolettes with faceted amethyst rondelles and with head/top-drilled 9mm peacock freshwater pearls.
I chose peacock pearls with lots of lilac, purple and lavendar color.
Because the tops (not the centers) of the pearls are drilled, the pearls do not lie flat. This '1 up and 1 down' effect gives the necklace a lot of texture and movement.This necklace runs 18 inches in length.
Price: $36

verrry nice. I began being attracted to the lavender, but find myself wondering how those pearls would look with some black and maybe small brass-tones spacers. They seem the type of pearls that show very different characters depending on what they're with and what they're worn with.
