pearls for Inge

[claudenancy]

I finally was able to have my camera repaired, and I was pleased to discover that some of the photographs of the necklace that I made for Inge had not been lost as I had assumed. I was happy with the lovely pearls that Inge sent to me to use in her necklace. My camera stopped working before I finished the necklace and completed the clasp area so these are shots of the "rough string".

Beautiful work..... Inge as in our lovely Swedish friend Jerin?

 

[claudenancy]

Yes indeed

All your work is lovely. I'm sure Jerin will adore it.

More lovely in person, no doubt! Am thinking those are tiny sapphire brios, but what kind of pearls? They look very creamy in color and a beautiful compliment to the sapphires. Congratulations on your successful collaboration!

Hi P-guiders!

Yes, Beth has done a lovely work with my necklace. The pearls are Exotics in a yellowy-rose colour and they look very lovely together with the sapphires and the tiny beads in between. I am very pleased to have a necklace that is quite unique in style and material thanks to Beth.

thanks Jerin--I would love to here a report on how the necklace is to wear and how the stringing, components are " holding up" at some future time--a learning experience for me.

Hi Beth,
so far I have worn the necklace only a couple of times but I will report later on. Right now everything seems to work just fine, the only thing I have to be careful about is the correct hanging so the pendant is exactly centered and then it sits there just fine.

Thanks Inge!

I have been taking a sliversmithing class and just saw this. Thanks for your most generous comments! May Inge wear it in good times and good health!

As it happens I am wearing it today, skies are blue with a "cold" sun. It is perfect now in autumn and I decided to call it my autumn-necklace. You should see how the saphires sparkle against the meallic, but warm luster of the pearls. Quite heavenly!

So happy for you Inge....but also a bit envious!
