Phoenix, the mythical bird, is a fire spirit with magnificently colorful plumage and a tail of gold and scarlet (or purple, blue, and green according to some legends). It has a 500 to 1,000 year life-cycle, near the end of which it builds itself a nest of twigs that then ignites. Both nest and bird burn fiercely and are reduced to ashes, from which a new, young Phoenix or Phoenix egg arises, reborn anew to live again.

The Fiery Phoenix Lariat is a vibrant tribute to the spirit of the Phoenix that burns within each of us.
An electrifying palette of flaming delights in delica, seed and bugle beads comprises the 35 inch long helix rope body of this blazing wonder:
*red hot, fire engine red
*warm as glowing embers, orange
*sparks of gold
*sound the alarm, hot, hot fuschia
*blue, blue, electric blue
*burnt to a crisp charcoal

Her beautiful and lovingly bead sculpted head retains its hot-headed dimensions as it is stuffed with (if you know me by now, fill in the blank______________!), you guessed it, pearls, in beautiful burnt bronze!
Sparks fly from her eyes of brilliant topaz Swarovski Austrian Crystal.
Her colorful, dynamic tail is a lush bouquet of individually hand beaded feathers, each one a lick of flame.

Neck draping choices abound:
-wear her long and lean once around
-double up for a torsade silhouette
-scarf style
-lariat style
-gently knotted

One of a Kind Necklace with many variations of impact!
I am absolutely smitten with her after hours upon hours of beady eyed dedication to detail, flow and durability (and don't forget Whimsy)! She will surely be as much fun to wear (eliciting 'Ooohhs!' and 'Aahhhs!' from her many admirers)!
