Malachite Double Strand Necklace

Malachite and rainbow moonstone chip beads, cultured freshwater oval seed pearls, beading wire, sterling silver findings, handmade sterling silver toggle clasp | 18"

Malachite is a stone that doesn't apologize. Its greens are saturated and strange, banded, swirling, the color of something growing in the dark. Paired here with rainbow moonstone chips that catch light and release it slowly, and cultured freshwater seed pearls that soften the whole without quieting it.

The two strands move independently and settle together. The toggle clasp is handmade in sterling silver, fabricated to suit the weight and mood of the piece. The findings are sterling throughout.

Part of the Studio Jewelry line: made with the same attention as the atelier work, in forms that can be worn every day.
