Necklace with Carved Jade, Copper, and Leather

I started this necklace yesterday, and finished it up this morning. I have been thinking about how to use these carved jade beads from China, and yesterday I tried out another idea. I combined them with Ethiopian copper beads, and strung them on dyed purple leather, using the knots and the exposed leather as part of the design. Then I photographed it this morning so that I could post it here.
