Elegant Labradorite Bracelet - A personal favorite

This beautiful labradorite bracelet is one of the first pieces of jewelry I've made for myself.
This picture shows one side of the bead.

This pic shows the other side. 
The labradorite bead is actually quite large considering, and also faceted. The natural labradorite is gorgeous and quiet possibly one of my favorite stones. This particular bead flashes many beautiful colors including blue, green, pink and gold.

Also, the beads I had left over from another project matched up perfectly with the labradorite. I used 3 green round beads with a bronze finish and one round faceted of the same color and finish. I also took a small flower charm off an older piece of jewelry which adds a delicate touch. I then finished off the piece by using the large ornate bead caps on the labradorite bead as well as 2 small pewter bead caps for the 2 accent beads, also in the antique silver finish.



 I also used the large chain which I then wrapped with small silver bead chain. Finishes the piece off nicely. I'll be working on a matching necklace for this piece as well as earrings. The beauty of this piece is captivating and is a close tie for my #1 fav.
