The headdress-crown "Snow gates"

I am very proud of this creation. Long thought over design. I wanted the headdress to create a glow effect in natural light. This was achieved by using transparent plastic and two layers of organza-white at the back, blue in front. All sewn manually. To repeat the work impossible. Piece is unique.
A translucent embroidery of beads, beads, pearls, agate and mother-of-pearl was superimposed on all this. Cabochons of opalite glass create magnificent fire flashes. In the pattern she used agates, which are credited with the properties to adjust the mind and calm the senses, mother of pearl for tenderness and strength of family ties. As for pearls - it is a traditional stone..
The design itself is a stylization of these ancient wedding dresses of Russian northerners taking into account the conditions of modern wedding fashion.
It is possible to make a similar model using the listed techniques.
