I love the bolo tie!

That is a really elegant way to use that shape pearl.The piece has taken a difficult shape and given it a fantastic solution. It becomes a classic bolo tie with arrow--tip slider, which brings it right into the mainstream of bolo wearers. ( and living in Arizona all my life, I have seen thousands of them. )

It's quite manly for dress-up. I'd even wear it on my skin! My good man would wear it with a dress shirt. Of course, he has always been a bead wearer since I made him a bead "love" necklace all those decades ago -which he still wears. His other favorite necklace is a chunky turquoise choker in shapes similar to face-drilled keshi.

This is one of my all-time favorite photos ever put up on this forum!
