I finished this cabochon of carnelian and jasper a while ago and was waiting for the right beads to string it with. I think it was worth the wait! And finished off with a handmade sterling clasp it is just right. I used hundreds of matte black seed beads in this piece and lots of tiny burnt orange clear delica's. One of my favorite things about designing a new piece is digging thru all of my cabs and seed beads and coming up with the right "palette". This one really works in my book. I love mixing browns and blacks together with another color just adding enough to make it blend well together.
very pretty!
