Necklace made of black-jet Heishi beads, enhanced with pretty drop-shaped turquoise beads framed by tiny sterling silver beads.

The Heishi handcraft is a long and meticulous process: First, rough-cut stones or shells are drilled and then strung on a wire, after which the artist holds both ends of the strand and carefully draws the beads back and forth across a grinding wheel or other rough surface to shape the Heishi beads.

Necklace length (including clasp): 46,5cm (18 inches 1/4)

Proudly handmade in the USA.
