This wonderful necklace was made by Nancy Bell with Swarovski crystals on sterling silver beading chain with a focal mille fiore donut bead from Luigi Cattelan.

Sue Boxill

Sue had a favorite saucer, when it broke, she couldn't bring herself to toss the shards.  After some time, it occurred to her that she could repurpose those shards as necklace pendant pieces.   We think she made a positively wonderful, one-of-a-kind piece.  What do you think?
