Mona Lisa (2-Tier Neckace) $ 45






If wearing one necklace is not enough, wear two! :) I will be making more of these 2-tier necklaces.

I personally like this piece a lot. The colours are slightly Bohemian combi, stones used are dark Amethyst, Aventurine, silver-tone pearls and well-cut purple Fluorite. The Fluorite stones are really very nice, different from the normal round beads I often see. It is well cut in the shape of 'Star of David', like a 3D star. The difference between Fluorite and Amethyst is that the purple portion of Fluorite has a much lighter purple, and the purple is heterogenous, i.e. you see some parts of the stone colourless, and another part in purple. I have been saving these stones for something nice this Mona Lisa.
