About this design:

I wanted to do something with the metal disks, so this design was created. I didn’t have a chain ready at hand so I joined jumprings together and created the chain.

Components:

Lapis, Azurite-Malachite, Metal disk, 5mm Jumprings, Metal clasp, Craft wire

Wow! You made your own chain ~ I am impressed. And the set is gorgeous. The silver discs really stand out and the Lapis/Azurite-Malachite beads really set it/them off.
