Necklace “Queen’s Serpentine”

When I first took this stone in my hands, I was fascinated with its warmth and the surprisingly pleasant feeling of something good and kind. This stone definitely had his own originality and required a very special touch, it didn’t want to be in a necklace for just, “every day use.”

My original intention was to make this a simple display of the beautiful lines in the stone, but as I continued in the design, the stones “queenly nature,” appeared. Thin lilac veins on the light-yellow-greeninsh body wanted to be  accented by lilac colour beads and with a wide palette of green color tones and shades.

The stone demanded luxury and charm, beginning with the antique italian microbeads (sizes 18-20) and ending with the Swarovski bicones and crystal beads. The main elements are embroidered on high quality leather, so the cabochon is resting on a “pillow” of  two-layered leather.
