It would keep the focus on the beauty of the bead and you could use a different color cord, depending on which side you're wearing out.<br />Or another idea is to use a piece of Natural Brass (I'm so into Vintaj these days) and create your own bale by bending a piece of filigree. While I agree that sterling would look awesome with this piece, I have yet to find anything that does not look good with natural brass.Cynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12337101534643323960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8934854770180589403.post-67690120848624058602009-09-16T07:48:17.238-04:002009-09-16T07:48:17.238-04:00So where did your friend go in Italy?

I would consider it reversible, and try to incorporate both colors - or a neutral to both - in the bail.<br />It's a great conversation piece, especially since it came from a foriegn country.coolmoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07581326618275214554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8934854770180589403.post-3731571123545303932009-09-06T09:17:59.270-04:002009-09-06T09:17:59.270-04:00That is a beautiful piece...love the beachy feel o...That is a beautiful piece...love the beachy feel of the pendant!
