Description
One of my favourite books growing up was city of masks, which was about a city that was essentially like Venice except with magicians and that silver was more precious than gold. That city was called Bellezza and for some reason that's what I think of when I look at this pieceSo, this is what I've been working on the last couple of days. It's almost nothing like the original design, I've never had a piece do so much evolving on me. The centre piece is a murano glass bead that I bought in Venice (the real one) about two years ago and have been waiting for a design to put it in. Also silverery-light blue seed beads, silver wire and silver plated wire, chain and the usual stuff. The length is adjustable

Oh! How beautiful! We used to go to Murano, and I must say, this is good enough to be in many of the galleries there. I love the curling silver, it matches the twisted glass so well!
What book was that? If you remember?

Thank you, you are very kind, but I think I have a few years to go before I'm at that level
