The Rhodochrosite crystal formation at the
bottom is the center piece of this necklace. There is also an unusual
double circle formation if Rhodochrosite on the side, with vintage
flowers and leaf beads and a sterling clasp with cabochon. Although not
competed (the other side of the neckline also gets vines and flowers), I
still enjoy it as part of my wardrobe.

Beads to Buckskins
The Buffalo skull is of porcelain glued & sewed to leather, beaded in size
13/Charlottes with a turquoise cabochon and beaded fringe of turquoise
nuggets and white buffalo fetishes of Howlite stone with feathers made of
beads completes this large pin backed piece for Purse or Jewelry.
The neckline to this brooch-necklace is under
construction. The Carrollite Cabochon has a wonderful spray of topaz colored
crystal formation in the bottom. The Topaz Crystals hanging in the fringe
are of Gem Quality and hangs within a cluster of amber & amethyst glass
leaves and a string of multi-colored Faceted Sapphire beads, drape over and
around the crystals. Faceted Sapphires are also places around the cabochon.
This White Buffalo was
published in Bead & Button magazine in August 0003, However the pattern and
illustrated techniques with instructions are in the revised volume one of Beads
To Buckskins.
