My friend Diana brought me a section of a Rosary recently and asked me to do something for her using the small garnets on the strand. The rosary had been her fathers and for sentimental reasons she wanted to have something made from the stones to remind her of him.
Garnets are such a deep, rich colour and they look fantastic mixed with gold. I found some interesting gold chain and mixed the garnets and some small gold beads along the chain.
I made a cluster drop as the focal piece in the front, which makes the necklace more contemporary.
