SUNSET BOULEVARD GYPSY Necklace by ECLETTICA worn

" So I´m back to the velvet underground

Back to the floor that I love

To a room with some lace and paper flowers

Back to the gypsy that I was

To the gypsy ... that I was

 

And it all comes down to you

Well, you know that it does

And lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice

Oh, and it lights up the night

And you see your gypsy

You see your gypsy

 

To the gypsy that remains

Who faces freedom with a little fear

I have no fear, I have only love

And if I was a child

And the child was enough,

Enough for me to love

Enough to love

 

She is dancing away from me now

She was just a wish, she was just a wish

And a memory is all that is left for you now

You see your gypsy

You see your gypsy "

 

Stevie Nicks ~ 1979

 

Rolling Stone Magazine's "Reigning Queen of Rock and Roll" of the '80s + Eclettica = a neckpiece that's as whimsical and timeless as Ms Nicks remains to this day.

 

This striking Eclettica adornment pays infinite homage to Stevie in the lavish use of vivid reds, oranges and pinks. Additionally, the precisely-coiled swirls (which have been positioned in delightful disarray); lithe length as well as asymmetrical placements of gems only serve to up that bohemian gypsy ante so synonymous with the singer's style.

 

The gemstones I've incorporated into this design are:-

 

>> 22mm Kenyan Natural Pink Ruby Focal

>> GEM GRADE Sunstones

>> GEM GRAFE Green Tourmaline Slices

>> RARE Ruby Moonstones

>> AAA Yellow Songea Sapphire

>> Blood Red Ruby Rounds

>> Black Spinel

>> Green Onyx

>> Chrysoprase

>> Fuchsia Chalcedony

>> Peridot

>> White Seed Pearls

 

As clearly evident, 999 Fine as well as 925 Sterling Silver Wires have been used with a liberal hand here, gloriously accompanied by 925 Sterling Silver Chains.

 

With a pendant drop just shy of 3.5", SUNSET BOULEVARD GYPSY currently adjusts from 20.25" to about 23". If you'd like her to drape longer still, just say the word.
