Victorian Lady Necklace with pendant by Irina Sergeeva 48 Hour Auction ends Monday, September 29 at 8:30am pacific time Starting Bid - $105.00 . . . . . . BIN - $120.00 Shipping - $3.50 in U.S. , $9.00 everywhere else Im so proud of this beaded necklace. It features an amazing bead by Russian lampwork artisan, Irina Sergeeva. There are people who make lampwork beads and then there are true artists who create miniature works of art. Irina is definitely one of the latter. Just look at the detail. She started out with a clear tab bead and added gold foil to the top for a background. This lovely ladys face was next with some glitter make-up and red lipstick. Shes wearing a 3-strand pearl choker and pearl earrings. The pièce de résistance is her voluptuous floral hat with fuchsia, light rose, pale lavender and tanzanite (bluish purple) flowers and a white ribbon weaving through them. Ive never seen anything like this phenomenal pendant. I wanted my necklace to stay with a Victorian theme and I think I accomplished that. I used 3 colors of round and bicone Swarovski crystals, Tanzanite, Light Rose and Fuchsia. The next section contains vintage 10mm Crystal Champaign round Swarovski crystals and Ivory Swarovski glass pearls. The third section is composed of the same pearls and lastly 2 Fuchsia and 1 Tanzanite bicone crystals. All of the beads after the first section are separated by tiny gold filled beads. Interspersed throughout the beads are Vermeil beads. I used a lovely rhinestone encrusted gold plated strong magnetic clasp as the closure. *1 more photo in comments
