If I Had Wings... Vintage Necklace





I thought I would try to raku a few little wings...very delicate, but full of color just to see how they would turn out. Thought I might use them with my Spirit Dolls Collection. Well...look at what Angela of summerscreations.etsy.com has created with one of a set.

Angela says "I love this necklace...A few weeks ago my son told me a story about all the things he would do if he had wings...

This beautiful blue vintage chandelier crystal was found on the East coast in an old carriage house and is nearly 100 years old. It's in perfect condition and is 2 inches long. The gorgeous Raku wing was made by the lovely wondrousstrange.etsy.com. It measures just under 2 inches long, and has the most amazing Raku colors. The old skeleton key has a very unique mottled look to it, with the plating worn through in some places. It measures 2 1/2 inches."

Visit her shop for uniquely vintage items. So very lovely!
