I love hand writing letters, and lament the illegibility of my students' handwriting, a skill that is seemingly rarely taught these days.
Seeing as I always, obviously, then put my efforts in the mail, I thought this time I'd try capturing them on camera.
Because I loved how my mixed media earrings “ScribeS” turned out … I had to create a matching neckware for them. Nonetheless, these pieces will still make an impact as individual pieces of adornment.
This mixed media choker is made up of vintage brass chains and findings, bits of fiber, rawhide leather cord intertwine with black lace, a beautifully speckled ocean jasper bead and black shell pearls. The focal point however, is the mega-mini handbound book measuring 1x2cm, bound in real leather with coffee-stained papers and decorated with a vintage brass filigree.
*The circumference of the choker is 14 inches, plus an extension of 4 inches of chain length.
*The length of the pendant drop is 5 and 1/2 inches
