Artist's Comments

Frost.....

The image that I have when I made this piece is of late Winter, while all buried in snow with signs of Spring peeking through the snow....

something that I've been working on on-and-off for the past few weeks, but I think it's done now.... not sure just yet... LOL sigh...

Focal is a piece of elaborated flashy Labradorite ( or Spectrolite as some might call this.... ), dangled with an AAA Whiskey Quartz smooth nugget, Boro lampworks from one of my favorite artist Kristen of Redside Designs, clusters of electrically dyed silver freshwater pearls accented with Blue Topaz, Tanzanite, Apatite, Ruby, Amethyst, and of course Labradorite were used through out....

I even made a toggle out of wire, yes even the round shape is formed with a few hoops of wire.... accented with more Labradorite... all with oxydized Sterling Silver wire and headpins....

good? bad?? :P you know I appreciate your comment!! Thanks in advance! :heart:

You have made champagne tones work with Labradorite! I normally cringe when I see it paired with warm tones, but you've pulled it off beautifully.
I also like the tactile nature of the piece. All those textures are begging to be touched.

:hug: Thank you Brandy!! :D

I always hear others saying things like how they don't know what to pair with Labradorite, thus I kept on working with different combination to show that it's entirely possible!!!

I am glad that you liked this one!! It wasn't really a hard task, though time consuming, but I enjoyed playing with all the dashes of colors. It really wasn't that hard with those gorgeous lampworks to start with though so... Glad yo uliked it!! :D
