necklace - FergSimone Oct 2009

Oct 2009 - Ferg & Simone wedding necklace

I made this necklace to be worn at Fergus and Simone's wedding in October 2009. It turned out quite well really and sat properly. However for some reason, after the event, I kind of lost interest in it and have now delegated it into the to-be-reused bin - and now is waiting to be disassembled.

The short necklace sits just about the collar bone. The center silver donut is from shinny good quality CCB silver donut rings. The piece is made in crochet beaded rope with lots of Swarovski Purple Velvet bicones. The toggle is handmade using brass (silver plated) beads - also done in beaded crochet rope technique.

	A full view of the necklace. The 2 "clasps" holding the silver donut ring is an extension of the crochet rope. Done in crochet with beads and sewn down. Larger photos follows ...		Another angle
	A more detailed pic of the crochet beaded "clasp" (or hands as I call it) holding the focal silver donut ring.
	The toggle. Hardened on the inside to keep shape.		Found 2 more pics. This shows it sitting quite well from the front.
	The clasp, though it looks ok lying flat during design and even wears comfortably ... obviously it does not look so good from the back. A design flaw that will not be repeated.
