This necklace highlights the rich hues of ochres, greens, and lilacs of a chalcedony-quartz mineral known as Fancy Jasper. It is largely mined from Brazil and Africa, but has been found all over the world and has been used for centuries by various cultures for ornamentation as well as religious art. Different levels of oxide and trace minerals, like quartz and calcite, present in this stone are responsible for its patterns of color. Accented with metal beads and black seed beads. This gemstone has a hardness of 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale, which makes it relatively durable and resistant to scratching.
Made to Oder - Necklace measures 15 inches from end to end. If you would like a different length, please request in the text field below at no additional cost (unless major changes to the original design are needed).

To ensure your jewelry's longevity and beauty, always take off before bed and place on a soft surface to protect any natural gemstones. DO NOT WEAR YOUR JEWELRY IN THE WATER, including chlorinated pools, hot tubs, and baths with added soaps or essential oils. If your jewelry gets wet, simply pat dry with a microfiber cloth or towel. Excessive moisture can seep into pourous surfaces and may gradually weaken, dissolve, or cause cracks to appear in the stone.
Avoid prolonged sun exposure while wearing your natural gemstone pieces. UV rays may damage or discolor gemstones over time, especially darker colored materials. If you display your jewelry when not in use, be sure to keep out of direct sunlight, indirect light is fine.
