Colors and textures of the seaside are found in this 17" necklace of cool blue amazonite and shining pearl. Although amazonite takes its name from bluish-green stones associated with the Amazon river, it is not found in the Amazon basin. Instead, amazonite sources include Peru, Russia, and Madagascar. The amazonite in this necklace is more typical of the Madagascar variety: paler and more uniform in color. Freshwater petal pearls are nacre growths that can occur naturally but are more commonly by-products of cultured pearl formation. Tiny seed pearls and sterling silver accents complete the cool hues.

Cost: $60.00 USD

Length: necklace 17"

Materials:

  • amazonite gemstone beads
  • freshwater pearls
  • dyed freshwater petal pearls
  • Bali silver spacers
  • sterling silver beads
  • sterling silver hook & eye clasp
  • SoftFlex nylon coated stainless steel beading cord

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

The components in this necklace are tough enough to handle curious tugs and pulls. Pearls are softer material and should be handled with care to avoid scratching. As with all beaded jewelry: do not let young toddlers chew on it.
