in love with briolettes

Faceted briolettes are always nice and sparkly. Even if they are smoky quartz. Aren’t these lovely?!

Slightly imperfect in the way the holes are cut, the faceting is gorgeous. I love the way the light rays bend as they hit the briolette. Full of sparkle and shine. And in a classic colour combination too. Gold and brown / black. You can’t go wrong with it. In fact, it will look fabulous teamed up with the little black dress.

First piece features a wirewrapped briolette strung on a 17 inch chain, with a pendant drop of 1 inch. Second piece is a briolette strung directly on a 18 inch chain, with a pendant drop of 2cm. Both pieces close with a lobster clasp accented with a Swarovski bicone. Each retails at SGD 28. Please note that both hang a little off centre due to the hole. If fussy, do not buy.
