Inspiration for pieces explained: Sculptural Grape Vine Necklace

       

When I found these beads I bought them on impulse, not quite sure what I wanted to make from them, but with the quality of carving I just couldn't resist! Because the leaf is like a vine leaf (although purple), I decided to create a vine around it. I added silver beads to the wire to add texture. 

This is now a favourite piece of mine, and I have to admit I immediately made a copy just for me!
