Pink Necklace and Earrings Lampwork Glass Swarovski Crystals Goldtone

Rose Petals

Pinks, golds, peaches and swirls of rose are resplendent in these gorgeous handmade lampwork beads from a talented Florida glass artist who lives close to me. Her beads are sweet and soft looking and oh, so, feminine in this stunning set. Each of these eight beads are 15mm in size and I have generously sprinkled this set in Swarovski and Czech beads.

Rather than offset these lovely rose petals with metal, I set them off with ruby faceted Czech glass beads that are tiny, but pack a colorful punch. They are what I used to bracket my 6mm sunny Sunflower Yellow Swarovski crystals and my 4mm Fern green Swarovski crystals. They are set in my topaz Jablonex seed beads as spacers and they are balanced on the top and bottom of the rose petal lampwork beads that are part of the earrings.

Topaz glass Czech beads are used to add more length and interest to the necklace.

Because of the swirls of gold in these lampwork beads, I finished these pieces off with goldtoned findings and toggle clasp.

The necklace has been strung on multi-strand cable and is 20 inches in length. It has been double crimped and finished with crimp covers.

The earrings are mounted on goldtoned leverbacks and are filled with Swarovski and ruby faceted glass beads.
