My Necklace Collection.

I love a great necklace and at the moment I really like a large statement piece although I do like a delicate silver one as well.

I like to match them with my outfits or try something a bit different.They are like scarves, a good accessory. Here is a look at my collection.





This next pearl necklace belonged to my Grandmother and have only acquired it recently as my cousin kindly gave it to me along with the clear glass beads further down. I did not have anything that belonged to her so they are very special. 










This next one is a Selangar pewter orchid that I have had for years. I grow a few orchids so it is very appropriate for me.



Another one that my daughter gave me was from Ishka It is my birth gem and is pink and grey.





This locket holds the photo of my cat who passed away many years ago. She was 21 years old.







This cat pendant was given to me by a girlfriend for my 21st birthday and I still wear and love it a lot.




The marqisite pearl on  silver was given to me as a child of nine by a friend of my  father's who also owned a jewellery shop. I have since passed it on to my daughter.




This is my favourite piece of jewellery and the one that I wear the most. It was given to me on Mother's day years ago when she was just a young teenager. It is very sentimental for me and I treasure it greatly.







I bought the next two in Germany last year. The pretzel I got in  a small shop in Rothenburg and the adelweiss I bought on the boat with a blue scarf to go with it.




















This next one is a particular favourite of mine. Bought in a shop called Ishka which sells a wonderful range of Indian and ethnic things including jewellery. I find it difficult to go into this shop without purchasing anything. Great for presents too.

This necklace is very functional and livens up a plain black top.It is fun to wear.
