Antique Crystal Decanter Stopper Necklace

I love to make jewellery from found objects and when I came across this beautiful antique glass decanter stopper, I felt it would be a wonderful challenge to make it into a piece of wearable art.

I spent many hours creating a handbeaded collar out of tiny silver beads and then many more hours creating all the silver beads which form the 59cm long necklace along with vintage crystal beads which really catch the light.

It was a real labour of love and would look wonderful on a special outfit, for a special occasion.
