Psalm 73:25-26

Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.
My flesh and my heart faileth:but GOD is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.

Irish Lady




This is a Vintage Design I did for a Client she wanted a repair done. It came to me with the wire broken and the Cross off with loose pink button pearls and a few silver beads. Some of the beads were missing so I asked permission to restyle and add to the existing beads in order to make it long enough to wear. I used Vintage Look Filigree findings in Sterling Silver plated metals also Sterling Silver Metals. Swarovski Soft Almond Pearls and Swarovski Aurora Borealias Crystals. Client had some pink button pearls and back closure was Sterling Silver. The Cross was Vintage Silver and I believe another metal, it was rather heavy. I strung it on Tiger Tail beading wire as the Cross was heavy and I felt it needed to be a stronger wire then the normal 49 strand I use. I had a few of her pearls left so I made a matching Bracelet and Earrings to complete this lovely 3pc. Family Heirloom. Client is Irish so I felt this was a perfect name for the Design.
