.Bamboo Stones
(in the Bead Stringing Gallery)

I am so loving the bamboo beads available in a variety of gemstones. Usually, one strand is enough to make a necklace plus at least one pair of earrings.

The necklace at left is made with a wire wrapped rose quartz briolette at the bottom of a strand of unakite, Bali silver spacers, and rose quartz rounds.

To the right is a pendant made with Czech pressed glass and African brass beads, along with gold spacers in a strand of green aventurine. At the bottom is a lampwork eye bead and a healing hand pendant.

Finally, I used ruby in zoisite stones as drops at the bottom of strands of rose quartz and black onyx. The amethyst strand is accented with jade rounds and Bali spacers, while the onyx strand has Swarovski crystals with the same spacers.
