Dragons!
Lately I haven't worn my Trollbeads gold dragons. Lucky Dragon usually adorns a permanent bracelet made as a tribute to my little girl, and Naughty Dragon gets to hang out on a necklace. Wondering if red gold looks nice next to yellow gold I tried it this way and I'm rather pleased with the result!

All 18k gold Trollbeads but for the Faerybeads 18k red gold Vertebrae and Coiling Dragon.

Re: Dragons!
Your bracelet looks amazing with the mixed metals, Sita! I think pink/red/rose (whatever you call it) gold is amaziing, but I dont own any yet, as all my jewellery is either yellow gold, white gold or silver. Maybe I will start to add red gold on beads someday, to mix with my other metals.
But gold beads in general, either yellow or red, will be a rare treat. I only own 2 trollbeads gold beads (two of the anniversary bracelet gold bead) and from pandora I own a bracelet with gold clasp, two complete gold clips and some two tone beads. When my silver collection is bigger I plan to invest more on gold, maybe, someday, I will be able to make a gold bracelet at least nearly as beautiful as yours.

Re: Dragons!
Must admit that wearing gold makes me a little bit nervous...
I actually haven't worn the TB dragons for some time now. Mainly because my little girl used to grab my jewelry. Nowadays I would worry wearing this much gold, also I prefer wearing silver. And especially black rhodium silver. But for an evening out that could use some glamour I might wear this.
The beads make up for approx. 55 grams (including glass and ambers) guessing the chain and lock to weigh 32 grams, turns it a rather weighty bracelet. Though I think if you would wear an all silver bracelet like a Pandora it would be comparable in weight.
It took me nearly 6 years to get these gold beads. The TB dragons date back to 2007/2008 when I was in a regular full-time job. I'm sure I wouldn't be able to afford a gold Naughty Dragon nowadays unless I would save up skipping all other expenditures.

and I think it is even more beautiful because it has taken time to collect all those beads, there must be rememberances and feelings of exaltation with it.
I also would not have thought of mixing red gold with yellow gold, with the glass used, it is perfect!

Re: Dragons!
The only thing better than a dragon is more dragons and the only thing better than more dragons are gold dragons.

Re: Dragons!
I've never seen this bracelet before, it looks so stunning. I love all the different gold tones and dragons. The gold greyhound lock is awesome as well.

Re: Dragons!
Those were the days
I must admit I haven't worn these for quite some time. Nevertheless, I also wear jewelry made by others, usually something without (glass)beads.
