The small aqua and larger Montana sapphire triangle glass drops I've used to make the pendant are vintage Swarovski, made specifically for the House of Dior. The centre of the pendant is a Swarovski crystal aurora boreale button. I've used Swarovski 4mm crystal aurora boreale bicone beads as the outer petals. The drops, button and beads are hand fastened (by me) to vintage high-quality silver tone filigree findings; then a second finding is attached by a picot edge of crystal AB seed beads, sandwiching all the threadwork between the two metal pieces, and away from buttons and other potential snagging hazards. The finished pendant is roughly 53mm (2 1/8") in diameter. PLEASE NOTE: These pendants are literally unique: one-of-a-kind; and are made by a process I am dis-inclined (is that a word?) to share with anyone. This is NOT an item that every Thomasina, Dickea and Harriette will be able to buy from numerous vendors on That Auction Site. If you are looking for the truly different, you've just found it. The pendant is suspended from 26" of silvery seed beads, Swarovski Montana sapphire bicones and 8mm aqua glass triangle drop beads. The clasp is a sterling silver floral motif hook set. Rich, regal and romantic, the pendant and the necklace could only come from SPARKLE PLENTY.
