Phoenix

I asked Laird to go through my encyclopedia of mythical creatures and choose one for inspiration to make a necklace. He chose the Phoenix (he started listing a few others but the phoenix caught me immediately). I actually sketched this out and went through a lot of angst to get it finished, and in fact the tail might need reconstructing because it’s made with beading thread not wire, but… here it is!
