This collar is created by stringing a group of four beads strung off-center of each row along five layers. The last layer increases in bead size and gives it a bold finish. This innovative technique of netting combined with right-angle weave are the stitches used in this piece. The strands across each quartet set are small seed beads to give it a delicate style.
A bezel is created using circular chevron chain and flower petals are stitched from it using chevron chain. A deep set stone is secured with peyote and a stamen embellishes the center using chevron chain and 2mm Swarovski crystals. The crystals in this piece give it an extra dose of glamour.
