Castcading Precious Drops of Rain
Castcading Precious Drops of Rain
Cascades of sterling swirls and parkling, dripping jewels shimmer all the way down your bare back as you walk away..... They will notice you coming, but will not be able to look away as you turn to leave! Like sun bouncing off fat drops of rain this necklace shimmers against the skin. These amazing labradorite faceted drops were hand picked and individually oriented to get the maximum amount of schiller. They are breath taking. Pictures do not do them justice. Sterling silver swirls were hand pound and buffed to a warm satin finish to allow the gems to truly shine. This one of a kind work of art cascades down the back and shows of a backless dress stunningly. Make and entrance and then make them take a second look as you turn to leave. Audible gasps, ooohs and aahhs were heard from the audience of an exclusive Portland fashion show where this piece was featured.
