Rosalie is a wirework necklace that features two lampwork beads by Mari Johnson (www.mjlampwork.com). I made all of the wire components by hand. Once the necklace was put together I dipped it into a liver-of-sulfur solution to "antique" the sterling silver, and then polished it to give it a lovely gleam. Rosalie is the perfect necklace for warm weather days, with its delicate and airy design and soft colors.
Made with Czech fire-polished beads, lampwork beads, sterling silver bead caps, and sterling silver wire.
Techniques include wirework.
Rosalie is almost 17" long from one end to the other, not including the center dangles. The center dangles are 2&5/8" and 3&1/4". The Czech fire-polished beads are 10mm and 8mm; the green and purple lampwork bead is 15mm x 17mm including the bead caps and the ivory and pink lampwork bead is 9mm x 13mm. The S-clasp is 1&3/8" long.
