This Necklace is FOR SALE in my Etsy Shop PhoenixDesign www.etsy.com/au/listing/182276…
Large range of Stones available to choose from!
The Heads are solid sterling silver, each set with two marquise Blue Topaz for eyes The heads hang from an Egyptian Style Spiral chain which represents the bodies of the dragons. Each head was cast using the lost wax technique and has a hook on the back from which the central ring hangs.
The central gem is a trilliant cut Sky Blue Topaz, bezel set into a round ring. This ring is completely detachable and can be worn seperatly as a pendent.
The Chain can also be worn without the ring, with one head/hook, caught on the chain just above the other dragon head, which gives it a slightly more 'casual' asymmetrical look.
The Chain is 460mm long from nosetip to nosetip. The heads themselves are and 32mm long and 34mm wide at the the ears The central ring has an outer diameter of 30mm and the trilliant blue topaz is 10mm x 10mm

EDIT - WOW! I got a DD!
Thanks so much to Myana for featuring my and to Kitten-of-Woe for suggesting me.
And thanks so much to everyone who had commented and Fav'd!
I am totally overwhelmed! 
My jewellery teacher didn't like the design at all, kept trying to get me to do something else! Of course he didn't like anything I designed that had a fantasy theme, so I pretty much ignored him. I'm glad I'm not the only one who likes it.

I think I saw it in a book on chain making, I can't remember what the style is called but it's a very ancient technique. I was experimenting with all sorts of cold connection techniques at the time because I hated soldering back then. (It doesn't bother me so much now, possibly because I'm better at it
)
