After having seen Catsworld colorful labradorite faery necklace I had to try and do something similar with Trollbeads glass and silvers.

Some people inquired whether the color of the labradorite would be hard to combine...
To me it is a most versatile and lively stone able to blend into almost any design you can think of.

Thank you dear Sita!

I did not need another FN, I had already 7, but I could not avert my eyes from the pics shown, I came back and back and kept dreaming of exactly such a beautiful treasure,
when I held it for the first time in my hands my heart was overflowing, it is so beautiful!

I love your colourful necklaces shown above, that is the way I like my necklaces and my bracelets, they really look great, and yes, the beautiful lab goes with everything, and today I thought it might be time to take my Eskimo by Michael Weihe out of the box, and so I did another necklace..

Dear Sita,
your necklace was created with love, and it is worn with pride! Love

and you forgot the story of the Eskimo, I got it from your hp and it is so lovely

"According to a Canadian Eskimo legend, the Northern Lights were once trapped in the rocks along the coast of Labrador, and then a wandering Eskimo warrior found them and freed most of the lights with a mighty blow of his spear. Some of the lights were still caught within the stone, however, and thus we have the beautiful mineral known as Labradorite " sunny

Wow!

That is so gorgeous! I'm truly in awe.
Those colors are just my thing but obviously didn't do. Thank you!

How does the bangle wear? I'm still debating whether or not to have one.
Something DH could easily gift me for Xmas without going wrong... Laughing

I love the bangle, got size XS and it really fits well,
I love to wear it with only very few beads or even better with no beads at all,
it is so great for showcasing a single bead or if you are in a hurry you can quickly put some beads on, it looks lovely with a silk wrap and it would of course look great if you had 2 of them, however, I think it is quite expensive and I would love it if TB would make us some real nice stoppers, richly decorated... Very Happy

what size bracelet do you wear in the regular foxtail trollbeads chain?

These Labradorite Necklaces are FABULOUS. It's such a neutral stone, you could wear any beads with it. All of your combinations are lovely. I will be adding one to my collection very soon. Thank you for the inspiration. Just fabulous.

18cm/ 19cm with lock that is....

Sita, those are simply breathtaking!! A FB Lab FN is definitely on my Christmas wish list Smile

And that bangle, FN combo is TDF, Catsworld!! I'm loving the idea of the bangle more and more.

Hijack

Thanks for the info (on the bangle), Catsworld. I've seen the size conversion charts and I was REALLY doubting whether a Small would be the right size for me (I wear a 20cm bracelet, incl. lock), so now I believe that that size should actually fit. Thank you!!
