Be dignified and stately as a column in this large scale 19" necklace of sodalite and moukaite. White veining is common in sodalite, an unusual deep blue mineral that is often confused with lapis. The large coin gemstones are spaced with brushed gold-plate petals and magnesite for a regal appearance. The clasp is an easy to wear vermeil S-clasp. (Vermeil is gold-plated sterling silver.) Given the large, dramatic size of the gemstones, this necklace is heavier than most.

Cost: $51.00 USD
