Description
Harlequin Romantic-Elbereth-
"Too great is her beauty to be declared in the words of men or of elves."
- the Silmarillion
Varda (or I prefer, Elbereth), one of the Valar created by Tolkien. Lady of the stars.
While I wouldn't begin to compare something wrought by myself to an elf goddess; when I hear of Elbereth "queen of the stars"... I think of a galactic queen and this pendant seems to embody exactly that in my imagination; with all of its grays and gunmetals mixed with swirling, nebulous qualities of the harlequin glass.
So there you have it. Elbereth, the Galactic Queen.
16"(41cm) long

oh... hmm. must'a changed or something (or someone in my fam didn't know what they were talking about, lol). my aunt used to where TONS of aquamarine because "it was her birthstone" and she was a dec. 29 baby. oops. lol.

Huh.... that's very strange! I'm almost certain i've got it right, though....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
no. you do have it right.
lol, i was wrong.
you're aquamarine and december is blue topaz
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha... oh well, that's okay......
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
lol, and it also makes sense that it would belong to the fishes
... but to an ares is kinda weird.
oh well. its weird scorpio can have the pretty, pastel opal... but they can also be (and are mostly)citrine (such a pretty stone).
yeah, i'm a dufass. i can't believe it. i'm losin my mind.
good to keep me up to speed though

Yeah, i've always kinda thought it made sense.... and get this: my name means "thinking of the sea," too! Weird, huh?
The Western zodiac signs have always confused me, to be honest.... i can never remember any of them except for my own!

have that image and that name in
my head. i need to be more aware

thank you!
it is synthetic (unfortunately, but i guess at least that way they're easy to come by).
it is handmade harlequin glass (hence my name, when i started out the idea was to use nothing but these stones, but unfortunately... i am, in nature, a deviant

I love the opal...it is the most beautiful stone...

Wonderful work!

thank you so much!
i can't think of too many things that
draw me in more than scrolling metal
work with a pretty stone.
sometimes i wish i could cast my own
filigrees to take credit for their
beauty

If it's a skill that can be acquired by practice, I'd say go for it!

you're too kind
elbereth; it is the way he describes
that tempts people like we artists to
try to capture even a fragment of her
beauty.

Now when you say it like that, it makes me want to read the book all over again. Tolkien has such a way with words doesn't he? He gives you a perfect picture of these fantastic moments while they're constructed on paper.

oh my!
ya know, i think i might have one...
the reason i word it that way is
i had stuff in storage with my parents
things. we lost all of that stuff, none
of it salvageable.
if it is by chance in my parents home!
then i have it
two tower and return of the king.
