Beltane-- Gemstone Thread Necklace

These necklaces are the culmination of years of collecting and traveling. The stones come from all over the world, some sent by friends, others chosen from distant markets, or selected from trusted gem cutters. Each bead is added to the strand, selected by color or texture, or how harmoniously it works with the accompanying stones. The work is a meditation, a prayer for good fortune for the wearer. Let this piece serve as a talisman of energy and reminder of the beautiful things found on this amazing planet.  These pieces are completely handmade and designed by Cynthia Thornton, with only the finest gemstones and magic in every stitch.  This measures at 20” and includes the following: sterling silver fly button  amber ruby garnet peridot aquamarine jade sunstone rutilated quartz pink opal pink spinel kyanite  and more!
