Pearls in Technicolor: Cluny Grey

I've been playing about with freshwater pearls quite a bit lately. I'm intrigued by those in unusual colours (dyed). Some colours are a bit startling sometimes, but others, like these magenta pearls to the left have a beautiful nacre and though the colour is not really one you'll find in nature (well, where pearls are concerned anyway) they are lovely. I've put 2 different shapes together with some of my vintage lucite flower beads and Swarovski crystals, and made one strand one half a pearl strand and one-half a chain strand with the flowers and some pearl dangles hanging down. I like this particular sterling silver chain very much; it has large oval links alternated with long thin rectangular ones - very interesting. The all pearl strand is made up of little teardrop style pearls that are drilled across the top so that they tend to fall into a little scalloped pattern.
