I love to make these big beads...not only are they fun to make, they are simply beautiful. The bead is hand sewn over a large wooden bead starting with the middle first and working my way out to then top and bottom. It is covered in quality precious crystal beads, Czech and seed beads. 

Strung on deerskin leather that is soft as butter it is 24" in length. The metal leaf is a perfect accessory to the overall necklace.
