Double Strand Necklace with French Antique Cut Metal Beads, Herkimer Diamond, Garnet and Wine Red Beads

This is a double strand necklace featuring French antique cut metal beads, Herkimer diamonds, and garnet & wine red beads. The very small metal beads are from France. Each bead is intricately cut. They are tiny, approximately 1.5mm in size. You can enjoy the delicate charm of old metal! As you wear it, certain parts will develop an antique gold hue. We hope you'll enjoy the beautiful patina that develops over time. The wine red beads are antique Venetian beads (circa 19th-20th century). Cut garnets are scattered throughout. A single small Herkimer diamond is featured, sandwiched between Karen silver with 18K gold plating. Near the clasp, a single Indo-Pacific bead in indigo blue is added (circa 10th century). The gently curved clasp is also made of Karen silver. ◇ Karen Silver ◇ This silver is crafted by a hill tribe living in the Thai-Burmese region. It is handmade, and said to have a very high purity. The necklace is strung with waxed cord, which may feel slightly stiff at first but will become supple with wear. ※ As this piece contains metal, please be mindful of water and sweat. Size Length: Approx. 43cm (when laid flat) Materials: Metal beads, glass, Karen silver, Herkimer diamond, waxed cord
