Summertime, And the livin' is easy Fish are jumpin' And the cotton is high Your daddy's rich And your mamma's good lookin' So hush little baby Don't you cry ~'Summertime' by George Gershwin Glorious summer days..lazy hazy crazy days of summer. I adore summer. I try to soak all of the hot sun into my bones and hope it will last far longer than the year before. It never does but oh the days are beautiful ..we could use more rain but I'm sure it will come. For now I'm enjoying the sun.

This artisan bracelet was created with my own flameworked glass beads, a few brass and ceramic discs along with some superb wee 22k gold marbled toho beads. It closes with a sterling silver lobster clasp. Very delicate and feminine. Measures 7.5" and can be re-sized for any wrist. Lovely sea greens and rusty warm ochres...one of a kind. Gift boxed with a small signed artisan card. Click on the image for greater detail.
