Well, if it hasn’t actually sprung, it is hoping to spring soon. Admittedly, I live in a very temperate climate, but even here in sunny Southern California it’s been chilly. I am looking forward to the daily grind of wearing flip flops, t-shirts, and shorts.
In anticipation of warmer weather, I recently made a necklace with one of my favorite stones–aquamarine. About a year ago, I purchased a strand of rough, faceted, aquamarine nugget beads. I have used them sparingly in my designs, and since they are of varying shapes and sizes, there are a lot of options. For example, the long, narrow nugget used in this necklace screamed pendant to me. Actually, it also screamed choker, but I chose instead to go with my original thought and made it a long pendant necklace.
Aquamarine Nugget Necklace – $45
The chain is 18″ long and the pendant itself hangs about 2″. It is a sleek, sexy necklace that will work well for both spring and summer. So what are we waiting for? Bring on the sun!
Yes, very lovely stone. The perfect color for summer.
PRETTY! I love aquamarines.
