Product Description
Its hard to say who will be the most jealous-those that will covet this gracing YOUR neck, wrists and ears or your other jewelry!
I cut the necklace pendant from copper and brass sheet metal. The copper piece is etched with my own hand drawn design. To complete the design, textured brass squares are riveted with brass to the four corners of the copper square. The copper section received a patina and then the whole pendant is coated with jewelry quality lacquer to help protect the patina and provide a lovely sheen.
Deep green fresh water pearls are strung with solid brass beads and solid copper tubes. The green hue is so dark as to appear almost black. Depending on the light, the pearls reflect shades of green, blue and black. The necklace is double crimped for added security.
The unique solid brass toggle clasp on the necklace is also hand crafted by me. It is soldered and very secure.
Necklace Length: 17"
The matching bracelet is constructed with the same attention to detail as the necklace. The clasp is solid brass and is also soldered.
Bracelet Length: 7 3/4"
The earrings are drop dead stunning! I formed the stylish round earwires from 20 gauge solid brass. The dangle itself is almost 2 3/4 ".
Earring Length: 3 1/4"
So, get out there and create some jealousy with this one-of-kind set!
Inspiration/Story Behind This Product
I have had the deep green fresh water pearls for a long time. Many times I laid these little beauties out and would just sit and stare at them. Nothing would come to mind. None of my other gemstones or beads seemed to want to be paired with the pearls...jealousy?
I made the brass and copper etched pendant...laid it on my bench...nothing went with it, UNTIL I reached for the pearls. Magic! Neither one is jealous of the other, so together, the pearls and etched pendant create jealousy in others.
