Necklace Amphitrite


Available in My shop

"Native tribes" is the theme of this week's challenge of the European Street Team on Etsy. The previous winner was Psarokokalo - http://trapme.blogspot.com/

I made this necklace from one big seashell felted into turquoise wool with silk fiber and small seashells, pearl buttons, pearl beads. I called it "Amphitrite" - sea-goddess, daughter of Nereus, and Poseidon's wife in Greek mifoologiya.

I have never been in Greece yet, this shells I picked in Turkey in October 2008. Here some photo from our vacations -

  1. Oh, you are quite talented as a photographer too! I love the little hollow in the cliff photo, but it scares me a bit too! It looks dangerous...
