This mixed media statement necklace has an extra-long pendant drop filled with handmade and global-eclectic elements. I originally made this as a sample for my Make a Statement live online class and then had the great opportunity to showcase it in my "Making a Statement" feature article in the Winter 2022 issue of Belle Armoire Jewelry magazine.
This necklace features one of my handmade fabric "obi" beads made from stamped vintage fabric and wrapped in Indian brocade and gold thread. The pendant tray is features a genuine turquoise freeform disc bead in the center layered with a replica Chinese coin and a Czech glass flower bead. The rest of the tray is filled with more flower beads, semi-precious gemstone chips, and pyrite sand and then sealed. The top section is a brass jewelry component layered with more Czech glass flower beads. The connecting beads are a mix of painted terra cotta, recycled African glass, painted Krobo beads, and amber colored Dogon (Dutch Donut) trade beads as well as brass spacers. I finished the pendant with a large tribal mask charm that I've enameled and colored to match the other components. The "chain" is recycled sari silk.
The "chain" is 22" with an 11-1/4" pendant drop.
