Jeri'z "French Twist" Red and Purple Beaded Swag or Festoon Necklace

Artisan Jewelry : Necklaces

 

This is one of my earliest pieces, which I'm only putting up now because ignorant I had used the wrong weight pins to make it and it kept coming apart, so I had to replace them all with the correct weight. Done in the French manner with double strands depending from a glass O ring on either side and a single strand to wrap around the neck, it's made of a combination of vintage red and contemporary bicolor beads with vintage brass beadcaps and filigrees adorned with rhinestone flowers connecting the glass rings. The necklace is adjustable from 16-1/2" up to 18-3/4" long, and the swag has a width of about 3" when fully stretched. Speaking of things French...well, never mind.
