The Bow - Rosette 3

I have been playing with the ribbon "Rosette" theme and here is my third version - "The Bow"

After I finish a piece of jewellery I usually display the piece on a bust in my lounge room. I get to enjoy the finished item. Often my ideas come from sitting and looking at a piece I have made, how to improve it, make a different version, new ideas/colours etc etc.

Displaying and enjoying my copper and aqua rosette (two posts ago) I realised how it reminded me of when I was younger and one of my sisters used to wear blouses with a tied bow or a frill down the front.  I wanted to try another Rosette version and capture that "bow" look in a necklace.   

Rosette 3 above does give you the look of a tied bow. 

I have a question for you. It is all well and good that I play with beading and create fun, new ideas. I will never stop doing this. Not having seen anyone else make anything similar (which is good) I really do not know if a woman would wear this necklace or the Rosette necklace.

My question is would you wear a necklace like this?

  4. Hi,Patrick:
    Very beautiful and stylish 'bow-rosette'.I like the idea of creating the rosette from beaded ribbons.I think-You've invented something extraordinary in this area.Usual rosettes,as I have mentioned before-are too much usual,despite the beads used-the form is always the same.Here-the design allows to spread the Wings of Fantasy,creating the variety of ribbons and their settings.This one is very romantic and elegant.I'd wear it with pleasure:-)

    1. Greetings Halinka, many thanks for your comments, I am very glad you like it. I shall use your saying "spread the wings of fantasy" for future rosettes. I would like to make a very colourful one I think, so maybe another soon.

      Cheers...Patrick

  8. Greetings Patrick,
    This ribbon design is wonderful. It has a lovely drape and by a colorway selection would be vintage or contemporary...very versatile.
    Happy "Beady" Weekend,

  11. Yes Patrick I would wear it gladly.
    It's a gorgeous one of a kind necklace. The clasp itself is so beautiful it could be the main piece.

  12. Thank you Amy, I have had a few people say the clasp should be the main part. I am currently working on a necklace using this look. I appreciate your feedback.

    Greetings and have a nice Easter....Patrick
