Antique Shamrock Necklace
I was heavily into Jet at one point, trading on eBay quite a lot. In two separate auctions these were included, and I was entranced by the delicate carving.
It's not been an easy decision to sell these, as I know I won't find them again!
Because they are genuine one-offs, I couldn't hope to create earrings, and the delicacy of them meant there was no possibility of creating a bracelet.
Although I found them in different lots, I decided that they should stay together, and realising that the double-shamrock had double holes that would easily take a chain the design grew from that.
