My necklace in  "Millefiori" beads


A few years ago, I had a thunderbolt for these very coloured glass shots found in a  shop of NIce (frnch riviera) (not being prosperous and highly respected alas more) after documentation, these African pearls called "millefiori" were manufactured in Venice then imported into Africa where they were used as barter.

My Mother-of-pearl


Well on I adore the pearls of all kinds but also mother-of-pearl and the shells. The whole "

Before my madness of the buttons! there was: pins with nourices.

Buttons and always of mother-of-pearl


More sophisticated version ....... The Hardware store

Always buttons ........

After my great discovery of the mother-of-pearl buttons here are quleques years in very sympathetic a  shop of Nice, its pearls and its creations; here an alternative on the buttons, the latter are covered with an image then frozen by a process innovated by the "guru" of the Stop Creation. Here these buttons are on a topic which particularly holds me with heart which is Asia and more precisely Tibet, India and Nepal.


Way slices melon!

Actually these pretty sections are in tinted horn.
I produced in the center of the photograph a large ring: I like to carry only one large ring to major of the left hand; on each side of the B.O very style seventies and finally a strong current of neck. Of course to carry the whole together too is!!! then I alternate: ring and earrings or strong current of neck and rings.
Still "the Stop Creation"
