Blue Chalcedony Necklace

Just sain valmis ühe kaelakee, nii mõnus tunne :) See kaelakee on tehtud 925 hõbedast, kiviks on kaltsedon, helmed pärlmutrist, kaltsedonist, looduslikust kristallist ja hõbedast. Pikkust on sellel keel 54,5cm, ripats kõige laiemast kohast 3,3cm ning pikkus 5cm (mõõtsin koos alumiste rippuvate helmestega). See kaelakee mõlkus mõtetes mõned nädalad juba, võtsin selle kaltsedonist kumerlihviga kivi ja muudkui mõtlesid :) Probleem seisnes selle hõbedast pesa sidumine traadiga, kuna sellel polnud auke. Idee oli, aga ma ei teadnud, kas see töötab. Ja nüüd, kujutage ette, ma isegi joonistasin väikese plaani! Olen alati mõelnud, et see eelnev ehte planeerimine on äge ja väga professionaalne värk. Kahjuks juhtub minu puhul seda haruharva. Aga see kaelakee tegi mu väga rõõmsaks :) Naljakas kas pole?

I just made a necklace, it feels good :) I made it from 925 silver, the cabochon is from chalcedony, beads are from MOP, chalcedony, natural crystal and silver. It is 54,5cm in lenght, the pendant is 3,3cm at the widest point and 5cm long (I measured with the dangles at the bottom). I thought about this necklace for weeks, I often took it out and wondered what I could do with it :) The problem was how to attach the setting to the wirewrapped frame because it didn't have any holes (wasn't sew-on). I had one idea but I didn't know if it would work. And this time I draw a plan can you imagine that! I have always thought that previous planning and drawing is cool and very professional like. It happens really rarely to me, though. But this necklace made me really happy :) Isn't it funny? :)
