GALLERY 5 MY TURQUOISE MERMAID
I guess I should explain that I had been craving these sculptural beads by Mavis Smith and others for many years before I found them on Ebay at suprisingly affordable prices. So I couldn't choose just one. I bought this turquoise lady for myself originally, and strung her with pearls, beautiful blue quartz drops, shells, and some more of those great Chinese lampwork beads from the Portland show, this time in a blue wavy pattern that was just perfect for a mermaid.
