a long time friend of mine has taken necklace design to a wonderful level....with beads she got from me, she had artist Joan Babcock create some beautiful wearables using beads you typically don't see worn very often.....I love the earthy and organic feel of the pieces
Makes me think of the work of CA artist Barbara Witt, who has purchased ancients from Bassem to use in her work. Google images for Barbara Witt necklaces for more treats to view!
