Mavis' Glorious Angel goes to school

Sep 01, 2003 19 Replies

I just finished this a few moments ago, and before she heads off with DD for the school fundraiser, I thought I'd share. The necklace features one of Mavis Smith's Glorious Angel lampworked beads which, including my wirewrapping, measures an impressive 4-3/4 inches in length! I was absolutely ecstatic when I ran across these vintage Venetian beads since I knew they would look wonderful with the angel. In addition to the vintage Venetian beads, just about everything else in the necklace is also vintage (including the bead caps) with the exception of the angel focal and the Bali clasp. Thanks for taking a look!
