One of a kind necklace featuring a swimming mermaid.

I created the mermaid by crocheting and sewing coloured copper wire over a strong wire frame. The mermaids tail is decorated with medium sized and tiny malachite stones and some gold plated beads on the tips of her fins. Her top is decorated with two peridot stones, tiny jade stones and tiny gold plated beads. The mermaid hangs on a sterling silver chain that has a box clasp closure. I added some hand blown hollow glass beads for sea bubbles and some mother of pearl drop shapes around the mermaid so it appears she is splashing in the sea. The drop shapes are light coloured on one side and dark on the other and each drop has a grey fresh water pearl above it.

The necklace measures approximately 43cm (16.9 in) long and the mermaid measures 11cm (4.3 in) long and 5.5cm (2.2 in) tall.
