Citrine faceted rondelle necklace + earrings

Citrine fascinates me.  I resisted stringing these particular beads for the longest time, because I enjoying playing with them so much, moving the beads in the light and watching how they glowed and sparkled.  Almost hypnotizing!  They're like solidified sunshine.

The beads are cut into faceted rondelles, measuring about 5mm in diameter and about 2.5mm thick.  I strung them with 3.5mm Bali vermeil daisy spacers, finishing with a gold-filled lobster clasp.  (If you examine very very closely, you can see that I missed my pattern in two places....) The finished length is 18.75 inches, with a weight of 0.6 oz.

I used gold-filled headpins and French hooks to make the matching earrings.  The longest dangle is 1.75 inches.  The earrings weigh 0.1 oz.
