Product Description
Original design miniature watercolor pencil painting of a lively gray horse head makes up the focal piece of this 20.5" beaded necklace. The miniature painting is an original; I painted directly onto the 1.5" canvas pinback. This necklace is also adorned with tiny sterling silver seed beads in two strands with lovely moonstone beads, sterling silver beads and tiny faceted real blue sapphire gemstones. There are over 200 sterling silver beads alone that make up this necklace.
The focal pendant is strung with silver plated heishi on the backside, so there is some slide for adjustment. I used silver plated clasp for this unique necklace.
** The focal piece is a tiny painting and needs to be treated carefully when wearing. Although there is a protective varnish applied, the painting is NOT waterproof, sweatproof or solvent proof. Please be careful to not spray any perfumes, deodorants, water or lay the painting directly against the skin (the backside of the pinback is fine against skin). Also, be careful against rubbing the painting against other fabrics (such as a seatbelt strap).**
If you have any questions, please ask and I'm happy to get back with you asap!
Thank you for visiting and God Bless!

Inspiration/Story Behind This Product
As an admirer of Native American Art, I have been blown away by beading "paintings". This necklace is influenced by such beading work. I thought the tiny sapphires would work well with this little horse head painting colors of dark blue and grey, contrasting with the bright yellow background. I chose the iridescence of the opaque moonstones as a nice compliment to the sterling silver beads & sapphires. Stringing this necklace was a lot of work I found out, but I'm very happy with the result!
