Time in a Bottle by Cliff Swain Salomon
There is nothing more precious than the gift of time and spending it with those we love. I was inspired by the lyrics of the Jim Croce song,
“If I could make days last forever. If words could make wishes come true. I’d save every day like a treasure, and then… Again, I would spend them with you”
The soft curves of this piece look like an hourglass-shaped bottle. This necklace is a nod to the Art Nouveau period and sparkles like crazy! The piece is made to look like bead embroidery even though it is all woven using a blend of CRAW, PRAW, RAW, and Peyote. The focal is a 16mm Swarovski Vision Stone which is surrounded by rhodium plated Preciosa cupchain. In addition there are 13 Swarovski crystals and 77 Swarovski pearls, a shimmer 8mm Swarovski chaton, plus a platinum plated/crystal Claspgart
