We've come across a small supply of mixed-media shiny copper beads that have sterling silver embellishments welded onto them, and we love the two-tone effect!
These marquise-shaped two-tone beads have a multi-point copper star and sterling circle and granule decorations on both front and back. The sides have a granular effect in copper.
We've complemented these with copper tubes, sterling or fine silver tubes (fine silver has a higher silver content than sterling), sterling rounds, and sky-blue Sleeping Beauty turquoise (from Globe, Arizona) to create these stunning necklaces.
These necklaces have a nice weight to them and are very flexible. Copper toggle clasp with sterling silver adornment.
Dimensions: Style #1 is 23" long. Style #2 is 23-1/4" long
