This necklace was made by Elizabeth Johnson and
features her handmade glass berries. It includes two salmonberries and one blueberry, all life-sized. The berries are nestled among handmade glass leaves in several shades of green. A few olivine-colored faceted Cubic Zirconia pears and rounds add sparkle. For
strength the necklace is constructed on 49-strand beading wire, double-crimped and
finished with sterling silver findings. Overall length 17 inches.
This necklace is one of three in the limited edition. Each is slightly different from the other two.
To clean this jewelry, wet your hands and lather them with a little liquid hand
soap. Use your fingers to distribute the suds over the beads, then rinse
very thoroughly to remove all soap traces from inside the beadholes. Pat dry on a clean terrycloth towel.
