I have two people who can answer that question in my house, my DH and son and what they say is pretty much "I wouldn't wear it and "it's ok"...they are of no help at all. So I will ask you all....
."What do you think?", "Would you wear this?" "Is the pendant too small?" It is a long piece and these are so darn hard to photograph, so sorry about the poor pictures.
The off white links are vintage, polymer clay beads by Aslan Crafts, Lampwork bead by Being Beads. I etched the brass beads caps and sunflower pendant.
Judy, I think it looks great, but have you thought about tying a little bit of yarn or ribbon at the bail for just a touch of color. I think it would bring the color throughout the piece into more balance. Just an idea.
ReplyDeleteIt's great! You do such lovely work!
ReplyDeleteOkay so hubby and I looked at the pictures for a while tonight and we have a suggestion. The white link that the chain and pendant are attached to, be changed to something else or move the chain to attach directly to the pendant not to the white link. I was thinking a large pewter round link like Green Girls Studios Mystic Ring might look cool there.
ReplyDeleteJust our opinion we loved everything else especially the colors and how long it is.

Who listens to men?!! I love the etching, it is spectacular!! I love the combination, I love long, and I would wear that in a heartbeat!!
ReplyDeleteI know...don't you just love the comments we get from our men...the necklace looks great! I love the pendant and the colors compliment the lampwork bead very well!
ReplyDeleteFunny I get the same sorts of comments here at my studio. No help at all. Never doubt your jewelry talents. This necklace is super creative and very interesting. Well done...
ReplyDeleteLove the colours and the length! Sorry that your men can't wrap their minds around jewelry - guess that can't be expected of all of them... but I know that some can.
ReplyDeleteOf course I woudl wear it !!!!but when in doubt ...wear it yourself for a few hours If your doubt is the lenght of the chain etc.. that always helps me decide what links to take out or add becauseI can then see what twist, bangs on things etc..
ReplyDeleteSometimes hubbys can disturbing. The necklace is great - especially the etched pendant.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great necklace. What do guys know about jewelry anyway?
ReplyDeleteI think its REALLY pretty. And for that matter - and I mean no offense to your men - but what do they know? lol My guy is constantly giving me off opinions. Then I walk up to my daughter and she okays it. So there. :)
ReplyDeleteI think your jewelry is always fabulous. In this piece I think the chain overpowers the pendant a bit. They are great in themselves. (Just my opinion.)
ReplyDeleteHa! What do men know? Whenever I show my boyfriend my stuff, he's like "huh. nice." and that's about the end of that.
