| This necklace is handmade in Thailand. The necklace itself is waxed cotton cord, which is tightly hand braided,giving it a stiff quality.The gemstones are Carnelian,Coral, Jade and reconstructed Turquoise. The turquoise is real - when there are pieces too small to use in a settings,they are ground and mixed with resin to hold it together. So reconstructed Turquoise is still the real gemstone,it just isn't in the natural nugget form. The necklace is 16" in length and very light, not a chunky type necklace. The Carnelian flower is 1.75 inches high and wide. It has a carnelian bead and loop closure. |
