L'Air du Temps Redux

This tiny perfume sample bottle made a simply cool pendant for my 12-yr-old granddaughter. She picked out the bottle, a vintage L'Air du Temps bottle by Nina Ricci, and let me work it up… just for her. I loved this one so much, I need to make myself one just like it now!
Deep garnet red glass beads fill the bottle just part way… so they can move and shake. Making their presence known. The bottle is wrapped with aged copper wire and it hangs from a length of antique brass colored mini-ball chain. With the wire wrap, this pendant measures 1 & 1/2 inches tall.
All that's missing is a photo of my darling girl wearing her new pendant.
