Asymmetric Green & Jet Set

10% discount until February 14 on all necklaces.

Length 26 inches 

The beautiful green foil bead was sent by a friend attending a bead show in Las Vegas.  It naturally dominates a necklace.  I tried it centered both horizontally and vertically and did not like it so I just kept moving it around on the bead board while trying various combination of things .  Regular onyx was ho hum, but the jet bi-cones had some kick.  The Malachite match surprised me, and I liked it.  However, if one places a heavy bead on one side of a necklace, it must be counter-balanced by equal weight on the other side to hang properly.  To the eye, it is more pleasing if on the whole, there is a basic sense of symmetry.  In other words, we humans seem to seek order in some form, even in art.  In this case, I have used color to achieve that symmetry.
