Souk Cotswolds-based glass artist Fiona Sands makes the most wonderful borosilicate glass beads, and I was very fortunate to aquire these beauties from her. Boro glass has the almost magical ability to change colour in the light, and in bright sunlight it is simply breathtaking. This glass is packed full of bright, vibrant colour, so I chose gemstones which are equally strong and spicy - amethyst, garnet, pink sapphire, carnelian, and mystic quartz. White Hill Tribe and sterling silvers finish the necklace, and it is, of course, fully adjustable.
