Icicle like inclusions of black tourmaline pierce milky quartz gemstones in this 16" black-and-white necklace. Rutilated quartz is a quartz variety with thin, needle like inclusions of rutile, a titanium oxide, though black tourmaline can be encased in quartz in a similar manner, as in the faceted rondelles here. Obsidian squares are smooth, solid black, and colored freshwater pearls and brushed silver provide the darker, gleaming silver elements. The combination is like a slim silver-grey bough in winter, dormant and dreaming of the warmer light and longer days of spring. Sterling silver hook and eye clasp.

Cost: $51.00 USD

This shorter 16" necklace wears best with higher necklines and thinner materials, and its low volume means it fits well under most jackets.
