ALLEGRA - Custom Bracelet



What do you do when you get a request from an exuberant, sociable & very out-going young lady for a bracelet to wear to a semi-formal cocktail function with an off-shoulder LBD...

It had to be Black & Silver ONLY, along simple lines, yet classy, modern/timeless and to speak for itself ..... Precious advice from a wonderful friend and talented crafter immediately came to mind, ie. "Keep it simple, and if you'll wear it yourself, you're on the right track".

While A-AA grade beautifully faceted black Onyx rondelles (in 2 sizes), strung into 6 strands rule in this dark sparkler, smooth & "basket weave" 925 silver beads come together as a 'silvery' focal point. And, ALLEGRA was born. Its also versatile in that it can be worn with the toggle either at the front or back of the wrist.
