Aw, thanks to everyone for your comments.
And you know the best thing about this pendant is that my husband took one look and said " that's a dark pearl with green tones".
Which, for me, says it all, as he's colour blind and can never see overtones, orient, rainbow. All he sees when looking at pearls are coloured ball bearings.
Blaire, the enhancer bale is just so much more versatile.
Silversea, the pink beads are rubies.
To all members of the beader's club - a huge thank you; if it weren't for you posting ideas and tips and sharing your knowledge, I'd never have had the courage or the nous to learn what I have.
