The use of "coin" shaped beads - both the turquoise and the dyed freshwater pearls -
implied currency. Spanish "pieces of eight" may be the stuff of high sea adventure and treasure,
but their abundance in the American Colonies and Caribbean resulted from a far more practical reason:
a lack of British coins. Great Britain had few sources of precious metals, and most British currency
remained in Britain and the Colonies traded with foreign currency. The copper wire features add interest and
whimsy to a colorful and casual necklace. Necklace is secured with copper hook & eye clasp.

The components and beading cord should be robust to toddler tugs and pulls, though both
the turquoise and pearls are softer materials so care should be taken not to crush them (such
as stepping on them, dropping weight on them, etc). As with
all beaded jewelry: do not let young toddlers chew on it.
