Channel your inner mythical creature with loops of vibrant blue-green and purple fluorite in this versatile 40" necklace. Fluorite is a halide mineral made of calcium fluoride. Without defects, fluorite is colorless, and impurities or voids introduced into the crystalline structure during formation are the source of the outstanding range of color, from deep yellow to vibrant blue-green and purple, which are among the most popular fluorite gemstones. "Rainbow fluorite" is the name given to this lovely green, blue, and purple colored gemstone. This necklace features small round gemstones and faceted gemstones in an ombre pattern, from pale gold to deep purple, spaced by delicate glass seedbeads. The necklace can be worn as a long single strand or doubled; it may even be wrapped multiple times as a multi-layered bracelet. The beads are strung on natural silk thread for superior drape, and the sterling silver magnetic clasp makes it a literal snap to fasten.

Cost: $95.00 USD

Length: necklace - 40"

Materials:

  • rainbow fluorite gemstones
  • Japanese glass seedbeads
  • sterling silver components and magentic clasp
  • natural silk thread

Care & cleaning: Clean with a warm soapy water and avoid chemical or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft jewelry polishing cloth to clean tarnish appearing on metal.

Fluorite has four directions of perfect cleavage which means it fractures easily so care should be taken to avoid hard impacts. Hard tugs to silk thread can distort or damage it and for this reason, the necklace is best kept out of young hands. As with all beaded jewelry: do not let young toddlers chew on it.
