Length: necklace - 18 1/2", 8" bracelet

Materials:

  • grossular garnet beads
  • turquoise beads
  • Japanese glass seedbeads
  • sterling silver beads
  • sterling silver hook & eye clasp and lobster clasp
  • Soft Flex moderate duty nylon coated stainless steel cord (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 beading cord is strong and should be robust to toddler tugs and pulls. As with all beaded jewelry: do not let young toddlers chew on it.

This 18.5" necklace and 7" bracelet can be worn separately or together for a cohesive look. For the stones to lie flat, a top with a curving neckline below the collar bone works best, though a scoop neck or moderate V-neck would also work well. The larger stones in the bracelet mean that it will comfortably fit a 7"-7.5" wrist although it is 8" in length.
