Not a friendly design.....

[imanit]

This one was a real bi#^& to make !! I had to redo it twice and half !! Those strands did not want to place themselves as I wanted them to !!









2mm and 6.5-7mm FW and silver clasp.
I'm alomost happy with the result...

Oooooooo, so dramatic! Love it Also feel your pain on getting multi-stranders to "play nicely with each other".

 

[Mary Montpezat]

Beautiful! I love the spacings - so much more dynamic than when pearls are evenly spaced ....

 

[Amrita]

Goodness! That is absolutely gorgeous! Hats off to your patience in completing this piece.

 

[imanit]

Looking at those pictures I see what I did not see in the mirror......three strands need to be redone..... Well...tomorrow I will start cutting again........LoL

 

[Katbran]

Personally I like the slight overlap of the strands..if that's what you are going to change I would never, ever have the patience to string all those tiny little pearls! Well done, nice design!

 

[pearlescence]

That's gorgeous. getting random placement is hard, never mind the strands laying well. HM The Queen has one three strand necklace with the shortest strand needing a pearl. Every time she wears it I itch to add one

 

[imanit]

Overlap is fine.. On one side I see three bigger pearls aligned by the clasp not nice! And the shortest strand is too short.

 

[pearlescence]

If the shortest strand is a pearl too short then the whole thing is a Diamond Jubilee Homage to Her Majesty!

 

[imanit]

LoL..... Homage on the human scale.......

Actualy, I have a rather posh wedding to attend. I have an of one shoulder dress. I wanted something delicate but rich to complement it. I'll wear it with tassel on the back. What do you think?

 

[pattye]

I think you will get many many compliments! It's stunning, Ivona, just amazing!

 

[Ash]

Ivona,

Cheers

 

[GemGeek]

Drool! It looks amazing right now. Just relax and go with it!

 

[lisa c]

I LOVE it, I love the crossing over strands and the balance of itty-bitty pearls with the larger!

 

[Lindaphillipsbong]

I also like the the slightly "messy" look when they cross over. What a cool design. It is lovely both ways!

 

[dkan 168]

That is a beautiful necklace, not sure if I would make it myself as it looks a lot more difficult than stringing a strand.

Drool! It looks amazing right now. Just relax and go with it!

Thank you all....and I'll relax AFTER I fix those three strands,LoL....

Messy look just happened, was not planned, but I like it too!

Ivona, I have a giant crush on the pearl strand in your avi. I never see any multi-color strands that are color-graduated (?) like that, only where the colors are all mixed up.

 

[LouiseH]

Sea Urchin, I agree! I'm thinking about learning to knot just so I can make myself a graduated color necklace. Random order is nice, but why must they ALL be that way?!?
