Crisp and efficient, Miss Lemon managed Hercule Poirot's office. Crisp lemon quartz shines forth in this short 15" necklace. Unlike citrine, which can occur naturally, lemon quartz is the product of heat and iron. When amethyst or yellow quartz is heated to high temperature and exposed to iron, glowing lemon yellow quartz results. The oval gemstones in the necklace are faceted to catch the light. Yellow green peridot gemstones are like the leaves on a lemon tree, striking in contrast. Peridot is the gem form of olivine, a mineral common in the Earth's mantle and even found in some rocky meteorites. Delicate Miyuki glass seedbeads set the gemstones apart in a piece that can be worn as a single strand necklace or doubled as bracelet. Sterling silver lobster claw clasp.

Cost: $37.00 USD

Length: necklace - 15"

Materials:

  • faceted lemon quartz beads
  • peridot gemstone beads
  • Japanese Miyuki glass seedbeads
  • sterling silver components
  • sterling silver lobster claw clasp
  • Power Pro braided synthetic cord

Care & cleaning: Beading cord may be frayed or severed through hard jerks or prolonged exposure to rough or sharp edges; store necklace flat when not in use to prevent stretching or fraying cord. Clean with warm soapy water and avoid chemical or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft jewelry polishing cloth to clean tarnish appearing on metal.

The materials and cord in this necklace are robust to most tugs and pulls, but care should be taken to prevent hard impacts which can damage the glass. As with all beaded jewelry: do not let young toddlers chew on it.
