I took some pics of this piece before mailing it off to its proud new owner. This chain is woven with 66 feet of 24 gauge 14kt. gold-fill wire, all single-knit stitch. I usually make my own hooks, but the client specifically requested the lobster claw. This took a long time to weave, but I very much like the impressive "presence" that the finished piece has.

Wow! Awesome piece. I am sure the new owner would loveeee it.
Wow - just beautiful! I can't imagine how long something like this would take.. you must have incredible patience!
Thanks for the comments! The new owner does indeed love it, and now wants hoop earrings to match! I think I will start another necklace, but even bigger!
