Newly Listed: Pink and Green Pi Focal Necklace

I made this modern little pi necklace ages ago but didn't get around to taking photos until a couple of days ago. For shame!

First of all, I am having the. worst. time trying to figure out what Google did to Picasa. lionelmessi.gif

I like doing beaded things, but I also like experimenting in different silhouettes and using more chains (or maille!) for more modern, minimalist looks. Sometimes less is more!

I also like how pi specifically looks in this kind of style, thanks to the regular/linear progression of the first few digits. Think about it; pi goes 3.1415... and so on. The 1s are nice little spacers and 3, 4, and 5 have a nice asymmetrical yet entirely regular increase to them. I have a deep need for symmetry (Lawyer Mom and Teacher Dad can tell you all about that!), but asymmetry like this I can live with. It doesn't feel entirely off-the-wall or unbalanced.

So far this is the only "focal" style piece available in the shop. I have a couple others tucked in storage in the US that I'll be bringing back out soon, so keep your eyes open! I love my beadwork, but once in a while I like to keep things easy and understated.
