Two large turquoise nuggets and a sterling silver fish draw you in. The strands from the fishtail seem to lend the thought of bubbles flowing off it's tail as it swims along (my sisters idea, thanks sis). Cool blues meet warm brown in the clay beads followed by rich golden browns to deep chocolate hidden within the bronzite coins. Join them all on a knotted brown silk cord to softly bring them all together. The top of the stream shimmers as a sterling silver parallel weave chain and a custom made sterling clasp.This necklace was so interesting to make. It was the first time I had gotten to work chain maille into a piece that I have done. The chain and clasp were made completely from wire, and I am so proud of that. The light colors of the turquoise and silver balance so well with the warmth of the bronzite and silk cord giving it a warm and calming appeal.
