Joie de Vivre jewelry

The deep wine color of the faceted garnets and their sweet round shape are like clusters of grapes, fresh from the vine. The garnets are clustered between sterling silver "vines" and wrapped with tiny Japanese glass beads like tendrils in this striking 20" necklace and approximately 1.5" earrings. Smaller plum-colored faceted teardrops mingle with the heart cut drops, encircled by smooth garnet rounds. The sterling silver hook & eye clasp is shaped appropriately as leaf and tendril, and the shape makes for easy on and off. The earwires are simple low profile sterling silver wires that position the "grapes" just below the lobe and allow the drops to swing freely near the jawline. Forever vino!

Cost: $150.00 USD

Length: necklace - 20", earrings - 1.5"

Materials:

  • garnet gemstone beads
  • rhodonite garnet beads
  • Japanese glass seedbeads
  • sterling silver beads
  • sterling silver earwires
  • sterling silver toggle clasp
  • Power Pro moderate duty braided Spectra Fiber&trade (30 lb. load test)

Care & cleaning: Beading cord may be kinked or broken through hard jerks or severed through prolonged exposure to rough or sharp edges; store necklace flat when not in use to prevent stretching or kinking 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 sterling silver tube beads are thin walled and can be bent or distorted with heavy-handed tugs so it's recommended to keep this out of reach. As with all beaded jewelry: do not let young toddlers chew on it.

The 20" necklace length is long enough to be suitable with most necklines, including boatnecks, scoop necks, V-necks and turtlenecks. Wear it with a sleeveless party dress for a relaxed, harvest time vibe.
