One of the nicest parts of the job is meeting people and particularly enjoyable is creating new pieces with their input.

A similar clasp had caught Lisa's eye on evadorney.com and when she spotted this pale green cushion cut praseolite in my box of gemstones she knew just what she wanted it to become ...

Pictured above is the finished clasp in silver with a 9ct yellow gold bezel. It's been teamed with three rather different strands to great effect.

The first, a matt black onyx strand is a strong statement piece, the second a cream pearl strand lends to the clasp's elegant sophistication and lastly a grey leather necklet which makes the clasp altogether more contemporary.
