Dangly Cube Pendant on Greek Leather

I've used one of my handmade cube beads to create this gorgeous and very unique multi-strand necklace. Fine silver is combined with lampwork glass to create the organic swirling design within the focal bead. A heavy layer of crystal clear glass is formed into this amazing cube shape. Tiny raised dots of clear are added along each edge of the cube creating a sparkly gem-like effect. The bead was then made into a pendant, adding dangles of mizuki cubes, Swarovski crystals, and freshwater pearls. The focal bead and dangles hang from an ornate sterling bail with a filigree design and this whole focal centerpiece is then strung on thin strands of Greek leather. Lobster claw clasp. Created March 2009.
