Anne's Necklace and Earrings

About this design:

This one is similar to a designer piece that a great customer asked me to make for her. Easy to wear short or long.

It's the most expensive chain I've EVER bought, but was worth it ... it's not hollow. I've seen and held the designer piece and this one is much more substantial. And check out those wonderful wedding quality 14 mm coin pearls!

I hope she loves it ... if she doesn't, I'd be happy to keep it. LOL. I'll send her pictures tomorrow.

Components:

Coin Pearls, Sterling, Hill Tribe Silver
