Features: gold, silver, rare stones combined with large diamonds; elaborately shaped pendant consisting of a small diamond bow with a round spinel in the middle and large spinel pendant in a lacy diamond frame is suspending from the central spinel

Origin: made by jeweller Leopold Pfisterer on 10 April 1764 for Empres Catherine the Great

 

Jewellers refer to the word 'esclavage' meaning a small necklace. This type of jewellery came into fashion in early 60s of the XVIII century. They were worn in the following pattern: a wide lace or velvet ribbon was wrapped around a neck and over it an esclavage' was pinned or clasped. Various shapes of esclavage were depicted on the portraits dating back to that period of time. They are also exhibited in museum collections. The one concerned is a luxurious bow measuring 11.5 x 11 cm (4,5 x 4,3 in). Its frame is made of gold and silver but is practically invisible as it is entirely covered with diamonds and spinel. Spinel is a group of rather widely spread minerals. Alexandrite and chrysoberyl are examples of this kind of gems.

PCAGOE Team's February challenge theme is "Gemstones And Flowers Associated With Your Birth Month".

 

I was born in the month of June. The traditional gemstone is Alexandrite, the modern birthstone Pearl. The flower associated with June birthdays is the rose.

 

I created a polymer clay pendant using an Image transfer of a vintage Victorian valentine featuring deep pink and lavender roses. The rose colored oblong beads are also polymer clay, which I embossed with a floral stamp and treated with eggshell acrylic paint before baking. I added Alexandrite Czech glass cathedral beads and Mother of Pearl oval gemstones. The rose beads are capped with antique brass floral bead caps. I used 2mm antique brass spacer beads and finished the necklace with an antique brass branch toggle clasp.

 

Vote for your favorite February challenge entry at www.pcagoe.com beginning Feb. 1 through Feb. 7. You may be one of 5 voters chosen at random to win a beautiful polymer clay item created by one of our member artists.

We have Freya, Nimueh, Raven, Morganna and Catrina. Galina makes an appearance too!

Some great big boiled-sweet gems I bought last week. Left to right, Green Quartz, Czochralski Chrysopberyl/Alexandrite, two Amethysts and another Chrysoberyl. The colour-change on the oval Chrysoberyl is particularly amazing!

 

Believe it or not, but I was starting to run out of huge stones!

Raven, watching and then joined by Morganna

...no idea what this color is called, but the number on the bottle is 409. It's sort of mauve?

 

This gel stuff is amazing. I'd never had it before, but tried it for the wedding. 21 days and no chipping! It's like vinyl or something. It did start to peel after two weeks, but from the bed end, not the tip. Really crazy stuff. You have to soak your nails in 100% acetone to get it off!

 

The stone in the ring is lab-made Alexandrite, so it's purple and green-blue. On my monitor, the color is really accurate.

 

On the way back from the salon, I bought baguette, brie, and San Pellegrino, so, all in all, a very fancy day!

 

My hands are fat, but I'm old so I suppose it's to be expected.
