This incredibly intricate beaded collar is made using a Russian netting stitch to form deep ultramarine and lighter cornflower Japanese seed beads into shimmering peaks and valleys of colour.
The two blue shades are accented with iridescent gold seed beads, which enhance the exotic beauty of the piece.
The result looks like something that would have been worn to court by a particularly wealthy and stylish lady of the Byzantine Empire.
It's nearly 2-1/2" wide, and roughly 18-1/2" long, closing with a charming 14 kt gold fill hook set.
Naturally, it's from SPARKLE PLENTY.
