This glass pendant was made by my friend Roscoe.  I just particularly liked it, and traded him for some adult beverages :-) He calls this pendant "Fang", so in keeping with that spirit, I have named the necklace "Fang and friends".  I've got to say, this is a fantastic mix of glass and stone beads.  Every time I look at it, I see something new and different. It also has  nice heavy weight and feels "substantial".  Total length is 24 inches, so it is not a short necklace. It can easily be worn on top of a collared shirt, for example.  It has a handmade clasp made from Sterling Silver.

Buy something nice and help the Ronald McDonald House!



One of my recent items has just been added to the Ronald McDonald House auctions page.  This is a great cause and I hope you will support it if possible.  This necklace is 36 inches in length and is made of a mix of gemstones and glass beads. It has a machine made sterling clasp.  I had never worn long necklaces much until I started making my own, and now I really enjoy wearing them. I have found them great for dressy occasions and fun occasions on the weekends as well.  Some of these beads weren't labeled when I got them, but I can recognize the zebra jasper (the brown ones with the designs in them.  The focal beads are made of canyon marble. Quite an interesting mix.  I hope you like it.
