Beautiful blue/green Swarovski Indicolite Crystal Cosmic Beads in 16mm and 12mm sizes is the focal of this very lovely necklace set. I also included 6 and 8mm Indicolite Bicones that are placed between gorgeous 10mm Vintage German Drizzle beads. Other gold filled elements that I added are 6mm gold filled dics beads on each side of the lovely blue Cosmic beads, and also in the earrings, and 3mm gold filled round beads between the 6mm bicones. A gold filled lobster clasp with extension chain (not shown in picture) make this necklace adjustable from 18" to 20". The 12mm Cosmic bead is the focal of the 2 1/8" matching dangle earrings. They are hung from my handcrafted gold filled ear wires. The beautiful blue of these Swarovski crystals seem to glow from within.

GOLD FILLED is not like gold plated as there is approx 100 times more gold in gold fill, than there is on plated. Gold filled looks and usually wears as well as karat gold. Gold fill is very hard wearing and should last under normal wear conditions for a lifetime. The technique is a sheet of gold is mechanically applied to the surface of the metal. United States requirements state that gold-filled jewelry must contain no less than 1/20 its weight in gold. Wash with gentle soap and water and dry. No harsh chemicals or rouge cloths are needed.
