Coral and Hematine Necklace

I've recently started having a go at making some beaded jewellery and this is one of my first attempts: a simple coral and hematine strand necklace. It's approximatley 16" long, so sits at the same sort of level you'd expect a classic pearl strand too. The crimps aren't as neat as I'd like, but I might add some covers to them at some point (I don't have any at the present time).

Componants:
- Deep-sea bamboo coral (7mm rounds)
- Hematine (4mm rounds)
- Stirling silver findings
- Beadalon 49-strand wire

I also made the gift-box myself by hand with heavy-weight cardstock, silver ribbon and a scoring board.
