FRAN - Custom

In FRAN, all the stones used here are Fluorite, which is a huge fave of mine because of its rich bouquet of brilliant natural colours ranging from deep purple to greens and blues plus its glassy lustre, which is just so magical.

Its range of colours worked so well in this necklace, using them in the various shapes of faceted rondelles, smooth coins and the loveliest lily-pad ones (abt. 2 cm dia.), which are solid and puffy, and cut on both sides.

A Dragonfly (Thai Hilltribe Silver) hovering around the lily-pads playfully adds whimsy to this piece, and the layers of textured chains look like little ripples of water in a serene pond. Measures 30 in., and closes with a lobster clasp.

(Not a good day for photography, as its starting to drizzle, and this is the best I could do with this pix).
