Semi-precious stone necklaces with large lampworked glass bead:

I created these backwards. I fell in love with lampworked glass beads and had to create a style to showcase them. I use semi-precious stones and freshwater pearls and, of course, I combine these with the lampworked glass.

I started making this style with malachite, heishi and jade bears, which is a casual style. 

Then I dressed it up, and you have these simple, elegant necklaces.
