There is an ethereal quality to this necklace that pleases me very much. I combined some stunning lampwork beads by Manuela Wutschke with irregularly faceted champaign citrine on a gold filled chain. The pendant is embellished with rose quartz and champaign citrine brilettes for a dramatic finish.

Notice the depth and detail in Manuela's lampwork beads and how the stones compliment the design.

Lovely irregularly faceted champaign citrine gemstones are combined with rose quartz briolettes in this design. Gold filled and 23k vermeil findings complete the design. It coordinates perfectly with my necklace of the same name, without being too matchy-matchy, but also stands alone, without any excuses.

My current love is working with artisan designed lampwork beads, because they are individual, intricate and ever evolving. When you design a piece of jewelry with lampwork it is an original, one of a kind labor of love. Working in this media is a wonderful outlet for my creativity and there is so much to learn that I will be busy for a good while!
A special thanks goes to the wonderful lampwork artisans who inspire my mind and capture my fancy.
