Description: |
This stunning necklace is a nod to the art deco peacock
jewelry popular in the 1920s. The focal is a German glass
cabochon with a gem-quality flameball pearl gracefully
suspended from it and surrounded by a precious metal crown
made of bugle beads. The two feathers have Preciosa crystal
eyes, and the neck rope is composed of Preciosa pearls and
True 2 firepolish beads. Throughout the ages, peacocks
have symbolized rejuvenation, royalty, honor, and integrity.
They are also a symbol of beauty, love, and passion.
To create the different elements of the piece, several
stitches are used, including a variation of St Petersburg,
Peyote, RAW, flat half spiral, fan stitch, Albion, and a few
other combination stitches. Please know that Albion, the St.
Petersburg variation, half spiral, and fan stitch will all
be taught in class. A strong foundation in RAW and peyote is
required, as they are highly important prerequisites for
this class.
