Hmm not a big fan of the beads, is the center piece moonstone? It's lovely! Other than the beads I love it  Krista |

The center is a Swarovski crystal specialty cut crystal cabochon and so is the square one on the left its an emerald cut Swarovski.. The beads are pacific blue opal Swarovski bicones and the ones in between are Swarovski rounds. The top 3 green stones are green agates.. As for a tut on this I got it from Remy heath studios it was $25

Your work is absolutely stunning! I love the colors together, they go great. IMHO, it was a little too much of a good thing. I think you could have left some off. But, as I said your work is totally top notch.

I agree.. I want to strip it down to the center piece but I just don't want to waste all that wire/ time.. I know that it will go fast @ my shows so I am going to leave it for now. If it sits on my table too long I will modify/ strip it |

It is very well executed, but I think i would take out one green stone and most of the beads. a bit too much, even for me. just honest criticism.

Very technically difficult (from what little I know about wire) but the green stones kind of unbalance the design. They draw my eyes away from the beautiful center stone. Then again I am a guy who does not wear jewelry so what do I know :). Your plan sounds good, if someone loves it and buys it you will both go away happy. If it lingers and you have to strip it down a bit you still have a wonderfully intricate piece.

Not my style at all - especially beads. But that said, I like the wrap around the largest stone. It conflicts with the wavey stuff up top for me... The work is very well done.
