The Late Season Glass Beech Leaf Necklace you see here features three of my handmade glass beech leaf beads, accented by six green Swarovski crystals and hung on 14/20 Gold-Filled figure-eight chain. Like real beech leaves, these have subtle variations in color and shape. Because these beads are hand-formed in the flame of a torch by layering a transparent glass color over an opaque one, no two are exactly alike.
To complement the warm browns in your wardrobe this necklace captures the late part of the autumn color transition as the beech leaves mature. The first leaf is a golden brown, the center leaf is russet and the third leaf a rich red brown.
I normally make this necklace 20 inches long with a lobster clasp. The free end is finished with a matching Swarovski crystal. You can wear the necklace anywhere from 18 inches to 20 inches long by clipping the Lobster clasp into the loop of your choice. Other lengths and clasp styles are available by special order. Like all of my jewelry, this design is available in both 14/20 Gold-Filled and Sterling Silver. You can see alternate beech leaf necklace designs and matching beech leaf earrings by viewing the Beech Leaves Page of this site.
Beech Leaf jewelry can also be custom made with high-karat gold or platinum findings and accented with Swarovski Crystal or gemstone beads. Some examples of my gemstone jewerly can be viewed on the Custom Jewelry Page.
