Ebony Seed Pod and Jasper Necklace
My mother and I were taking a walk in San Benito, Texas when I saw these wonderful seed pods laying on the ground. I immediately knew what they would become…jewelry, of course, an item of self adornment.
This necklace is a result of that mid morning walk. It is made with waxed linen, bronze cubes and knots on the necklace for interest.
I used oval Jasper beads for the “seeds” and an assortment of glass, bone, and semi-precious rounds can be found in the fringe.
This piece looks great with a denim shirt and jeans and equally well with an elegant black dress.
