This beauty is made from 247 4mm Swarovski bicone crystals in Crystal (125), Blue Zircon 2xAB (12) and Aquamarine 2xAB (110). As you can see from a picture above, it is almost 1½ inches wide and approx. 7 and 3/8 inches long (including the clasp). I used a Silver plated 5 strand tube clasp. I have created an argyle pattern that repeats itself and zigzags from one end to the other. See that 5th picture with the light reflecting? That's just one facet of one bead! It makes an elegant gift (and quite a statement) for a loved one, or for yourself! This is an attention getter. You've been warned...
The hardware (and colors) used is always customizable. I happen to prefer Silver plated or Sterling Silver because I am allergic to yellow gold. I haven't been able to find a source for magnetic tube clasps in 5 strands yet, but I'm still looking...
$200 with your choice of tube clasp.
