This is an assemblage/ found object necklace made from antique velvet fabrics, brass chain, strings, and bird and findings. An image from one of my photographs of a lonesome winter tree is covered with little house made of mica and sewn on to the work. This piece was all hand stitched.
. To wear the necklace I crocheted a chain from soft variegated ribbon. The piece can be tied on with the ribbon to whatever length you like. The focal piece is a 3 square. The necklace is 18 inches long as it hangs from the ribbon.
