Large Glass Blackberry Charm Necklace on sterling silver or gold-filled, hand blown glass art, nature inspired jewelry 2024 Christmas Gift

Glass Blackberry Charm Necklace features one of my handmade glass blackberry beads with a light green transparent glass calyx. The blackberry is the size of a wild blackberry (about 17mm high) without the calyx. For strength the green glass calyx is made separately from the rest of the blackberry so it can wiggle a bit. This means if it gets bumped, it can spin and move instead of breaking. They are hung together on a ring and suspended from an ADJUSTABLE length figure-8 chain in Sterling Silver or 14/20 Gold-filled. The chain is 20 inches overall but you can wear it at any length you please by clipping the lobster clasp into the link of your choice. The free end of the chain is decorated with a matching glass leaf. Your jewelry will be carefully packed in natural white cotton inside a free paper gift box with a gold bow.

People will ask you why this blackberry doesn't stain your clothes! This necklace will gather smiles and compliments wherever you go. It would make a very special gift for the gardener, chef or blackberry lover in your life.

The Nature of Mother Nature
Almost nothing in nature is completely round, smooth or even, so I avoid making my glass fruit and leaves too perfectly. I put on little splotches and speckles, make them a tidbit lopsided, and add other small imperfection so that each berry or leaf is unique. This makes them look much more real.

Process and Materials:
All the glass pieces are handmade by me using the lampwork process - melting glass rods in the flame of a torch. The blackberry beads are made once cell at a time. I normally leave a few red cells for extra interest, but if you want your berry to be entirely black you can select that option during checkout. No two berries ever exactly alike. Because no paint has been used to make my glass fruits and leaves, the colors will never rub, flake or chip off.

Photography:
The photos above are representative of the glass fruit necklaces I make in this style. The necklace you receive will be similar to, but not exactly the same as, the one shown above. There will be some minor variations in the shape, size and color patterns of each berry and leaf.
