Carnelian with Trade Beads

I love everything about this!  The colors, the creamy texture of the Carnelian pendant and the luscious trade beads.  I set about to design this as shorter and with a second layer.  Everything I tried fought with the original layer.  It’s hard for me to stop but I did! 

Very special Carnelian pendants from Tibet, Peruvian Opals, Turquoise inlay beads from Nepal, Quartz, Grandidierite, Jasper, bone
