Liberia. I went to work on the beads hoping to create a necklace worthy of them. The result is the necklace above which combines ebony and silver rondelles with turquoise spacers from the Kingman mine in Arizona, blackish ceramic beads, and frosted white vintage Murano glass. An exotic combination to say the least. However, I am not happy with it. Although I tried many renditions, this is the best of my attempts.
The interesting thing about a design is you know when it is right. I might give it one more try with larger stronger beads. Maybe big round recycled beads from Ghana. Any suggestions?

ReplyDeleteFor thousands of years, since the birth of civilization, people have worn ornamental objects on their person to symbolise a meaning; wealth, position, devotion, courage or purely for decoration purposes. Once originating from the bones and teeth we wore to exhibit our number of successful kills, these objects have evolved over the years, although some cultures still use them in similar ways today.
