Sedona - Southwest Turquoise Necklace in Four Colors, Bali Silver Snake Tubes Handmade Gemstone Jewelry

About:

Filled with the lushness of four colors of genuine turquoise gemstone rondelles, the SEDONA handmade necklace will satisfy your Southwest jewelry needs. Turquoise can be found in many different natural colors, as this one of a kind necklace definitely shows. The front of the unique necklace features a band of eye catching sky blue turquoise. On either side of the blue turquoise, a grouping of various shades of green turquoise can be found, many rondelles with a rich tan color. Behind the green turquoise, there is a band of light blue/green rondelles, some with heavy black or brown matrix. Finally, darker blue turquoise with heavy black matrix finishes the main body of the necklace. Since the SEDONA necklace is not chunky, it can be worn with a wide array of wardrobe choices, from dress up, to the office, or to a casual weekend.

Each grouping of turquoise is separated by sterling silver tube beads handmade by artisans in Bali. The tubes have a traditional raised snake design in the center that is set off by a black patina background. Since the tubes were individually handmade, you can notice in the photos that they are very similar but not exactly the same. Sterling silver 2 mm beads flank each side of the tubes and add flexibility to the necklace. The necklace is finished with a secure sterling silver lobster clasp. For variability in length, a sterling silver extender chain was added with a turquoise dangle at the end. The glorious SEDONA turquoise necklace was carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs for the woman who loves classy, artisan turquoise jewelry.

*** Please note: the tuquoise used in the SEDONA necklace is genuine turquoise but it has been stabilized (like most turquoise) to increase its hardness and durability. The colors are natural, not dyed.
