Replenishable earthy elements are a nice reason to think of Earth Day. This 20" necklace has wood beads and colored freshwater pearls, both sustainable resources if well managed. Three denim lapis gemstone rounds are like water, both beautiful and increasingly sparse. The pearls are handknotted on silk cord for great fluidity and strength and the necklace fastens easily with a sterling silver magnetic clasp. The necklace can also be worn as a triple-wrap bracelet.

Cost: $40.00 USD

Length: necklace - 20"

Materials:

  • colored freshwater pearls
  • wood beads
  • denim lapis rounds
  • sterling silver components and magnetic clasp
  • natural silk cord

Care & cleaning: Natural silk cord can stretch over time, so it's recommended to lay the necklace flat for storage. Clean with damp soapy water and avoid chemical or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft jewelry polishing cloth to clean tarnish appearing on metal.

Generally, the materials in this necklace are robust, but hard tugs and pulls may stretch and distort the silk cord, and hard impacts or contact with hard objects can damage softer pearls. As with all beaded jewelry: do not let young toddlers chew on it.

This mid-length 20" necklace works best with thinner materials, or it may be wrapped multiple times as a bracelet.
