Gilded Frames Necklace

The pendant is a diamond shaped frame done in two colors of beads. One color is overlaid on top of a base color and gives the appearance of gilding over the top of the frame. Inset into the center of the frame is another diamond shape done in crystals which frame out a large pearl. Hanging from the bottom of the pendant is a embellished drop made up of beads with a bezeled pearl at its bottom. The straps of the necklace feature a matching square of crystals and pearls which repeats the pattern of the center of the pendant. Herringbone loops with inset pearls make up the rest of the necklace strap. Each section of the inset pearls within the strap has a tiny Fleur De Le leaf made out of beads, and pearls. The closure is a lovely little button with a loop at the ends of the necklace strap.
