Midnight Blue Dragonfly Pendant

   

Shopping online earlier this month for Swarovski crystal beads and pearls for my daughter’s wedding jewellery I  just had to check out the Swarovski pendants.  I spotted Swarovski’s new Dragonfly Wing crystal and couldn’t resist buying half a dozen.  I knew exactly what I was going to make with them.  Dragonflies of course :)

Swarovski have produced various colours but I liked the one with one of their special coatings  in a silver shade, which is a perfect match for the colour of real dragonfly wings. 

Ever since I received the order I’ve been wanting to make them up but had a couple of custom design orders to make first. Saturday evening I finally had my chance and made up the three pendants pictured above and below.

The dragonfly bodies are made with Swarovski crystal beads and  pearls with  a 925 sterling silver daisy bead in between.  The pendant is suspended on a sterling silver chain.  To finish the pendant off I put a curve in the tail because it looked too stiff   whereas dragonflies are in perpetual motion.

I’ve always loved dragonflies and bought and embroidered the picture below when I stayed with a friend in America nearly two years ago.  The pendant dragonflies seem to be dancing on air too.   All three are listed at Sea Witch’s Cavern online shop and are available to buy.  They would make lovely gifts or a treat for yourself. :)
