Indian Summer Nights Necklace 02

This is my entry for the EtsyBeadWeavers September Challenge – Indian Summer Dream. As soon as I read the challenge theme I thought of these colours and created this gorgeous asymmetrical collar. The striped portion of the necklace is beadwoven entirely with Swarovski crystal pearls in Bordeaux, Bright Gold and Mystic Black. The band, which has a slight wave, is woven onto a gorgeous beadembroided Carnelian cabochon which is surrounded by gold Japanese seed beads and Mystic Black Swarovski pearls. On the other side of the cabochon there are 4 gorgeous strands of genuine Burgandy Biwa Pearls, Mystic Black Swarovski crystal pearls, and Japanese gold seed beads. There are over 500 Swarovski crystal pearls in this stunning piece!!! The toggle of the closure is a Biwa pearl and the loop is made with the Japanese seed beads. The bead-embroidered Carnelian cabochon measures 2” (5 cm) by 1 ½”(4 cm). The beadwoven striped band is 1 ½” (4 cm) thick. The neckline measures 17” (43 cm).
