Yellow Stoneware Bead Necklace

I finished the necklace using the gorgeous yellow stoneware bead by Natalie Pappas.  I used tri-cut czech beads with picasso finish and czech striped iridescent beads on hand forged, oxidized and tumbled copper wire. 

I finished the neck strap with hand rolled and sewn gray silk cording and a handmade copper hook and eye clasp.







It is a bit longer than I normally make, but it just seemed to be

better this way.  I like the way the bead dangles on the handmade

bail made of square copper wire.  It is 20" long.
