Some fabulous vintage faux lapis beads (glass) were the perfect necklace for the pendant I designed using an artisan lampwork bead from That Bead Girl and a sparkling calla lily brooch from my collection.

I've also added some lampwork beads in sunny transparent gold from KerriBeads that just glow. To attach the necklace to the pendant I used a couple of Swarovski crystals and wire-wrapped a loop on one side. The stem side has an aluminum jump ring in bright blue.

Wear this reversible necklace all day. At work wear the lampwork bead in the forefront and then in the evening flip it over for lots of sparkle and still a good peak at the beautiful artisan lampwork bead.

This is a one of a kind necklace that would also make a fabulous bridal necklace that could be worn later on the honeymoon.

16 inches with a Sterling Silver scroll clasp. Easy to slip hook in and out of clasp.

I love the romance and colors in this one. I hope you do, too.

This one of a kind necklace is my entry into the June Art Bead Scene Challenge. The inspiration painting was of Ophelia. Read more in my blog post:
