This chunky 16" necklace features ruby in zoisite nuggets knotted on a cotton-blend cord for terrific drape and fastened with a sterling silver magnetic clasp. Ruby in zoisite is also known as anyolite. It is zoisite, an epidote mineral, embedded with red corundrum crystals (ruby) and black hornblende crystals for a speckled or mottled appearance. This natural, fluid necklace makes a terrific casual accessory.

Cost: $38.00 USD

Length: necklace - 16"

Materials:

  • ruby zoisite nuggets
  • sterling silver components
  • sterling silver magnetic clasp
  • cotton-blend 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 softer gemstone. As with all beaded jewelry: do not let young toddlers chew on it.
