Making my own chain.

I love to try and put gemstones together to show them off at their best which can often mean simple elegant designs, however...   I do like to try something a little bit different at the same time.  This meant trying to find an unusual chain for this design but I just couldn't find what I was looking for until I stumbled upon an image of someone making the chain I used.  I honestly can't remember what site this was on but I have to thank the person who uploaded that image for helping me with inspiration.

It took a little bit of playing but I finally figured out how it was done and I'm thrilled with how it looks




I think it just added a slightly 'funkier' look to a design that is timeless.



This is a sterling silver and amazonite necklace with the amazonite being the main focus of the necklace.

Amazonite is a stone often associated with truth and calm.  It is often used to promote rational thinking when worn and calms tempers.  Personally I just love the colour, it has such a summery feel to it.
