BIG JEWELED CICADA & PEARL NECKLACE~BLUSH PINK BAROQUE KESHI PEARLS~MOP PENDANT
One of my more unique designs this necklace features a real Cicada which was found on my deck one summer. Of course he had lived out his short life naturally so please be assured that I did NOT do him in to create this necklace, lol! These cicadas show up every summer and I noticed how beautiful their wings are. So while removing this little guy (or gal) from my deck I decided to incorporate him into a piece of jewelry. Kind of like the ancient Egyptians with the scarab. Sooooo here it is, a very regal jeweled Cicada which I have put on a large, round, vintage, mother of pearl and brass pendant which fits him to a T. The MOP is meticulously inlaid and makes a lovely background for it. The stones used on him are all vintage and include old glass pearls, oval flat back crystal stones, diamond shaped rhinestones and large, intricately cut, purple glass stones. He is very ornate in purples, yellow golden topaz and green colors along with the pearls. I found and purchased the most beautiful baroque keshi pearls. These are simply gorgeous, nice and large, between 15-18 mm, with the softest blush pink tinge to them giving them a shimmering creamy pink iridescence. Tiny smoke crystal beads and midnight purple carnival glass beads are used as accents as well. The clasp is an antiqued bronze toned toggle which looks wonderful with the metal in the pendant. The necklace measures17" long. The pendant measures approx. 2~1/2" in diameter and has my Ellen Original cartouche on the back of it. If you love pearls and cicadas you can't go wrong with this necklace~
