This necklace has a wonderful ease and elegance about it. It can be worn long, or doubled by using the included "S" hook clasp. It has 115 carats of truly lovely faceted rock crystal quartz, tiny Balinese silver accents, and hematite accents throughout. What really makes this piece sing though are the Thai silver beads. These are new beads made using a generations-old technique of wrapping hand-stamped pure silver over a natural pine pitch core. This necklace helps to keep that art alive. There are lots and lots of photos below, and I'm sorry to say that none of them do this piece any justice at all. It has fantastic sparkle in person. Oh, also, because of its asymmetrical design, it may have been a little difficult to find the "sweet spots" where the exact back is, and where to hook in the "S" clasp. I strategically added tiny hematite charms (close-ups below), so you can find your way around - no problem. Matching earrings are available as an option. The necklace is 37" long.
