This is a new necklace that I've just completeed for a friend's birthday. She's worked in the fashion industry all her life, so the pages have vintage lace with images of fashion through the ages, I've also added pearl buttons, silk ribbon and trim.
The cover was made from this silver plated biscuit tray. I cut it out with my trusty Dremel
