Fish-tail re-vamp

A real "signature" piece - striking and unique



If you have a necklace you've grown tired of, or a pendant you are fond of but has become unfashionable, all is not lost: it can be reworked into something new.





The centrepiece is a silver-metal and abalone shell pendant which my daughter brought me from 5th Avenue a couple of years ago.
The huge heavy lead crystal rounds come
from a broken necklace picked up at a
jumble sale 20 years ago and hoarded
jealously for special occasions.
The brownish-grey shades of the abalone
shell are picked up by the Swarovski
crystal pearls in Platinum.


Finally, a neat lobster catch and chain
extension, finished off with a teardrop
and another rondelle of vintage crystal.
