Joie de Vivre jewelry

Blue and gray are among my favorite color combinations because they remind me of cool mornings near water or gleaming metal. However, in this 18" necklace, I paired cool neutral feldspars - rainbow moonstone and labradorite - with warm copper and earthy turquoise. The result is a necklace out of the ordinary with a terrific etched mother of pearl shell accent in an antiqued copper bezel. A low profile copper hook & eye clasp makes for easy fastening. The gemstone chips are small, which means eye-catching style and color without bulk.

Cost: $40.00 USD

Length: necklace - 18"

Materials:

  • turquoise chips
  • labradorite chips
  • rainbow moonstone chips
  • antiqued copper link
  • mother of pearl shell cabochon
  • Japanese Miyuki glass seedbeads
  • copper beads and components
  • copper hook & eye clasp
  • Soft Flex nylon coated stainless steel 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 copper. As with all beaded jewelry: do not let young toddlers chew on it.
