According to Greek mythology Amphitrite was the sea personified. As Poseidon's wife, Amphitrite's offspring include seals and dolphins.
I finally finished Amphitrite's Garden and just in time for it to be successfully auctioned off at a gala event last night. About 20,000 beads including lapis lazuli, crystal, aventurine, freshwater pearls, copper, sterling, mother of pearl, paua shell, Czech glass, many, many size 8 seeds and several hours later I am very pleased with how it turned out. A substantial and lush piece Amphitrite's Garden makes a bold statement.
Although this piece will not, indeed can not, be duplicated the style will be offered for custom orders in the buyer's choice of colorway and theme.
