Winter White Metal

Last night at 4 am it started pouring rain! and 12 hours later it's still drizzling a bit. The sun is poking through the clouds here and there, but I think fall is here.... It's time for some accessories that will fit nicely over winter's turtle neck sweaters.
I hand strung this necklace using nine strands of black seed beads, and white metal beads as a focal point and accents on the sides. The clasp is a hand made hook and eye closure from rhodium plated base metal. The necklace measures about 23" (60cm) in length.
