Description

'Melian the Maia is a fictional character in the fantasy-world Middle-earth of the English author J. R. R. Tolkien.Before the First Age, in the Years of the Trees, she leaves the gardens of Lórien and goes to Middle-earth, and there she falls in love with the Elven-king Elu Thingol, King Greymantle, and with him rules the kingdom of Doriath. She has a child with Thingol, a daughter named Lúthien, said to be the fairest and most beautiful of all the Children of Ilúvatar. Melian's line of descent is the half-elven.' (wikipedia)

I really missed making elvish inspired jewelry, so finally here is a new one :)

The necklace features wonderful prasiolite briolettes, beautifully shining moonstone rondelles and a few sterling silver beads.
The design is based on an older piece of mine, but i've changed so many details that it's hard to see the old piece in this one :)
I've used nickel free silver plated wire for the piece, and oxidized it to add a nice contrast with the stones.

The pendant measures 5.5 cm (a little more than 2 inches) in length, and comes on a handmade wiking knit chain, which ends with an 'S' clasp and some additional chain for being adjustable. Max. length of the chain is 41 cm (about 16 inches).

hope you'll like it!
