Looking like you again Ann, flamboyant. Very impressive.But is it wearable because to me it looks extremely heavy. Gr. Ingrid.
Thanks Ingrid and no the necklaces are not heavy, there's a fair amount of coral on the ends of the necklaces, which is light. The handmade silver chain is probably the heaviest of them all.
Wonderful mix of colours and materials. Very appealing!
Wow lovely necklace Ann, great choice of beads they work very well together!!
Thank you for your kind comments Marie-Ange, Betty and Akkie. Coral and silver go so well and the coins with 2 holes in them make for an interesting design - not often you see them like that.
LOvely combination and i like how the multi strand construction gives it an impressive feel while the chain and filgree beads maintain an airy and light composition.
Cheers for the way you strung the coins in the way of the saharan braid finials!!
Alaa so glad you like the way the silver coins are braided - I wish all coins had 2 holes, as it makes the design much more interesting, and they don't hang singly.
I agree with all the comments made. It's gorgeous. You have a lovely feeling for colour and combination of different shapes. Beautiful.
Thanks Thelma.
