A Sassy Lady for a sassy lady! For the lovely Mara’s birthday, this necklace features a bamboo tile pendant with a coquettish lass in a tutu (really love this image!) and a brass swallow repurposed from a vintage pin. I forgot to measure the length but its long, made with two different styles of gunmetal chain, and has 3 lovely, pale blue, glass cube beads, two Swarovski rondelles and a Russian amber bead topped with a gold bead cap. This is part of my ongoing experiment to use more bamboo tile pendants in my work, and I think it turned out pretty cute :) It sort of has that “i just threw all these bits together and it just works cause i’m a genius (but really i spent hours planning it out)” thing going on that I find so difficult to do successfully.
