Oh, how I love the shinies. My order for some 15/0 beads arrived and I already had a tube of silver lined beads that were extra shiny because they are hex cut. It's possible that it would look even more shiny if I hadn't used matte black beads, but I'm not sure that would be a good thing. The silver is the thing. 4½ cm tall, 3 cm from nose to tail, ½ cm wide.

Materials: 32 gauge wire, 15/0 beads in matte black, silver lined gold, and silver lined hex cut crystal.
