This is a recent piece I created, which bears an inspiration from the headpieces worn in Elizabethan times. Sterling Silver, Cubic Zirconia, created and freshwater pearls.

It was a lot of fun to make, my goal was to create a piece that would look Elizabethan if worn with a period outfit, or would look uniquely exotic if worn with contemporary dress. All in all I am really happy at how it turned out, even though after the countless hours I spent shaping, forging, soldering and polishing, my back felt like really needing a break :-))

Whoa that's cool! Do you have a picture of it modeled on someone? Great job. Beading and jewelry *is* backbreaking work so extra kudos on persevering.

Seeing this takes my breath away and almost makes me want to cry a little. Apart from being absolutely GORGEOUS...it's SPARKLY...and it's HANDMADE. All are such a rareity anymore... :wow:

Although, just out of curiosity, did you create your own pattern for this, or what else did you do in planning the layout? :?
