Unfortunately from time to time I exibit rather strange behaviour (clearly I am bonkers!), so last year at the Paloma Faith gig in Harrogate I threw a necklace I had created for her birthday straight at her on stage nearly tripping her over in her fantastic platform shoes while she was in mid song.
Poor love thought I had dropped it and tried to hand it back (at least I hope that is why she tried to hand it back!).
Anyway, I created this giant rosery
necklace while listening to 'My Legs are Weak' from the album 'Do You
Want the Truth or Something Beautiful'. The song makes me think of departed loved ones obviously who you miss terribly and the pain you go through (what a sap I am!), the crystal drops are like tears rolling off it. Has a slightly Quaker feel I think with the embriodered lace collar.
Quite
interested in Victorian morning jewellary and tradition including religious
jewellary which is probably why it came out as a rosery design. It is a
deep aubourgine colour with brass findings and cut glass facetted beads
from a vintage necklace - everythingused in this necklace is upcycled. It ties at the nape of neck with a deep purple silk ribbon.
As you can see - its rather long!
