Beads and Jewellery Making Swarovski Crystal Bicones

Glam rock style beaded necklace

• Kerri

We have used a mixture of fresh water pearl beads, Swarovski crystal beads and faceted Czech glass beads to create a glam rock style necklace.

The beads have been strung onto various lengths of beadalon wire and attached to the two strands of chunky brass chain via calottes. We have then wrapped black ribbon around the joins and wrapped with wire to give a rough finish.

The fresh water pearl beads in this piece give a touch of glamour while the matte faceted Czech glass beads and chunky chain add a bit of Rock ‘n’ Roll!
