Black Rainbow

My newest necklace. First try at chain work… This is also my 4th necklace ever.

I wanted to make something which would have some kind of "beetle" colors (such as the ones you can see in my gallery here : [link] ) and here it is ! The colors of the stones are changing according to the way they're hit by light. They are mostly green, but they have very lovely pink, yellow, orange, blue, purble and red reflections.

Alternate view here : [link] it shows the colors of the necklace better

I spent approximately 5 hours on the beaded part (cabochon) and 7 or 8 hours on the chain work. So, 12 or 13 hours total. My hands hurt !

AB green Swarovski oval
Black Swarovski bicones (3mm, 4mm and 5mm)
AB green crystal faceted beads
AB black crystal faceted beads
Dark silver chain
Metal wire

I hope you'll like it !

It looks much better in real life, unfortunately the beautiful reflections of the crystal are not showing on the photos

If you're interested in getting one, please note me
