Blue and purple rustic effect polymer clay bead necklace

This unique necklace features my handmade rustic textured polymer clay beads. I made the beads by stacking irregular pieces of polymer clay with a colour gradient, changing from pale grey through blue to purple, forming an ombre effect. Between the stack beads are textured round beads.

The focal of the necklace is a foil lined blue glass bead framed by fanned beads (with the same purple-blue gradient) like a pearl in a shell. I have finished the necklace off with sterling silver findings and a lobster clasp.

This necklace is just over 45cm (18") in length, so it is princess length i.e. slightly longer than a choker.
