Anne Boleyn, second wife of Henry VIII the infamous and powerful king of Britain. Her daughter with Henry VIII subsequently became Elizabeth I, the Virgin Queen.
Anne, newly returned from the court of France was famous for her beauty and glamourous French fashion. She caught the eye of Henry VIII who courted her as his mistress. However, Anne held out for the ultimate prize, to be his Queen. So enamoured with Anne was Henry that he broke with the Catholic church and divorced his first wife, Katherine of Aragon so that he may marry Anne.
One of Anne’s favourite jewels are pearls. The Anne Boleyn necklace is a tribute to the tragic Anne who sadly lost her head when Henry’s passion for her waned. A filigree like net captures a beautiful sparkling crystal. From the crystal are suspended the signature three pearl drops. The necklace is reminiscent of the Tudor ornate style with pearls and crystals captured by beautiful little seed beads.

Bob Mackie's latest masterpiece commemorates a classic American landmark and features his trademarks — a dramatic headpiece, heavy beading and embroidery, and over-the-top fantasy glamour. Lady Liberty™ Barbie® doll is dressed in a fitted silvery metallic gown with long sleeves and a sweeping train at her feet. Silvery embroidery, bugle beads, and silvery star sequins accent her lovely flowing gown. She wears an elaborate headpiece, the beginning of a clear sweep of sparkling rhinestones and stars that circle her length. Shining from head to toe, her feet are graced by silvery pumps. In her right hand, she holds a silvery torch. Barbie® and the Statue of Liberty, two symbols that stand for all things American!
Someday I'm going to learn to appreciate simple, unadorned things that don't take months and months to complete. Probably when I'm dead.
Second beading step: string chain beads. They should be slightly longer than the spine beads, and go through -in this case 3- spine beads. Add one additional spine bead.
