Barcelona Necklace
(Detailed Images, Full Image)
   

This 3-strand Barcelona Necklace is a composite of several pieces of jewelry I saw in the various boutiques downtown and around town in Barcelona.

There is that strong topaz-yellow-turquoise palette. This palette is actually accented with a wide range of coloration, including pinks, mottled olivine, amethyst, and montana blue. The asymetrical and patchwork placement of color creates a sense of movement, as it draws your eye down and then around, up, over, down and around again.

The three strands are bound near the bottom, leaving a tight, narrow, elongated loop, with two overlapping strips of netted beadwork, using size 11/0 Czech seed beads.

The Barcelona Necklace is availble for purchase, in either a 38" length or 34" length. The colors and pattern would be similar to that shown in the images on this page. The necklace uses a simple 3-strand hook and eye clasp. The piece is strung on FireLine cable thread.
