By Danilova, 5-Row, Glass, Coral, Apricot Carving and Ceramic Smalto Necklace
ONE OF A KIND necklace from our own 'By Danilova' collection. 'By Danilova' is a limited statement jewellery line inspired by fashion recycling and nostalgic adornment. It tells a story of longevity, where each component is recycled from past fashion accessories and is re-imagined in its new, handcrafted form with only vintage and antique materials, beads and clasps. This gives the wearer a chance to experience treasured gems that have been collected and curated by me for many years. Each item is one of a kind and no repeats are possible!
This beautiful and versatile, long-length, necklace screams turquoise! It features whole 5 rows of beads and cascades of lengths - incredible skill and workmanship involved in the making of this necklace. If you counted the price of this necklace by work per hour it probably costs more than $1000.
It features multitude of turquoise Czech glass beads, as well as ceramic smalto. There is also smooth and round brown beads which are made out of horn, red Mediterranean corals and antique dotted resin beads.
The stars of the show however are the 4 face carving beads done on apricot seeds! Being all hand-carved, no one face is the same. See photos - they all differ!
The necklace is assembled professionally on a sturdy silk thread.
It comes on a silver box clasp with a large oval turquoise stone insert.
