This piece was inspired by these beautiful vintage milli Fiori beads from Milan, Italy. I was
drawn to the lively colors used in creating them and wanted to expand on those colors in this
piece.  I did that by using Venetian (with 22kt. Gold foil center)  and Hand-painted Czech
Lamp-work beads, Czech pressed glass, Vermil(23kt. gold plated Sterling Silver) clasp
and spacers. The necklace length is 20in. and strung on Soft Flex beading wire. Dyane  
The focal bead for this piece was created called Dichroic glass. When your up close, you can se layers of
iridescent color and the colors shift and change depending the light source. The blue beads are created
using the same technique and I created Spiral weave beaded beads to add texture. This piece includes a
Sterling Silver extender clasp which makes it adjustable from 18in. to 20in. This piece also features
Czech pressed glass beads. Dyane
