Awash: An Exercise in Wire and Glass

I purchased these gorgeous Lampwork beads on eBay from a Self Representing Artist named 5436hollie, and was so delighted with them, I just had to make a necklace right away! I got to work making the components to showcase such pretty beads, and am relatively pleased with the bohemian nature of the result.

 Wow, this piece took a lot of work! I handmade the links and connector piece using Vintaj Artisan Copper wire in 16 Gauge,hammered and textured them, then wrapped them with 24 Gauge of the same. I used the garden gate clasp from my Practice Clasps, and the rest just unfolded! Pardon my pictures, I'm tired and just got off of work. =^__^=
