THE DUCHESS - Necklace By Claire Pearse

Photobucket

This is an eye popping creeation by Claire Pearse!

True dramatic elegance, dashed with romantic notions of corsets and bustles, renaissance glamour and regal enchantment. This show-stopping, light, bright and elegant necklace is part of Claire's 'Lace' collection.... a marriage of forging, crochet and wire wrapping, forming wire 'lace' embellished with sumptuous and exquisite gems. A magnificent bejeweled creation that is sure to make its wearer feel like royalty.

An intricate crocheted circle of Argentium silver wire has been edged in 14k gold filled lacing, and topped with spiraling scrolls of tightly coiled 14k gold filled wire forming the outer layer of the pendant - the gold scrolling shown in amazing detail by the underlying layer of bright silver. Set in the center of the pendant is a show-stopping, huge AAA faceted briolette of Pink Amethyst - a true collectors gemstone - the beauty, color and clarity is sensational. Cradling the magnificent centerpiece is a crocheted net of 14k gold filled wire, the light passing though the lacework, reflecting sparkle from the many facets.

Showering, cascades of gold chain accompany a sparkling collection of AAA lilac Pink Amethyst and Pink Topaz, the perfect finishing touch to this dramatic pendant. The necklace is fastened with a secure lobster clasp and is fitted with an extender chain finished with Pink Amethyst briolette.

Utterly romantic, regally inspired and undeniably enchanting - I adore this necklace, it was a joy to create, and I know the new owner of this heirloom necklace will be enchanted by her beauty too.
