  length:

price: 60.00

materials:

  • 14/20 gold-filled14/20 gold-filled wire, clasps, etc. have a thick layer of 14 karat gold bonded to jeweler's brass. It is a much thicker layer than gold plated material.
  • garnetGarnets are available in a wide variety of colors, from the rare green tsavorite and demantoid garnets to the rare orange spessartite garnet to the red or pink rhodolite, pyrope, and almandite garnets. The most plentiful garnets are pyrope, almandite, or a combination of the two. Garnets are rarely treated.
  • cultured pearlPearls have been admired in jewelry for centuries. Most people are familiar with akoyas, which are cultured saltwater pearls, but there are many other types of cultured pearls, such as tahitian, south sea, and freshwater pearls. Cultured freshwater pearls are available in a lovely array of natural colors, pinks, mauves, oranges, etc., and are also available in many dazzling colors that are a result of dying. I primarily use cultured freshwater pearls, either natural color or dyed.
