About this design:
I purchased these White Topaz faceted teardrops from LB because I thought they were unusual. I mixed them with garnet crystals to add a little color without taking away from the beauty of these gemstones. Would be perfect for a bride or Mother of the Bride, or a more formal occasion.
This necklace is for sale in my shop. Visit my website for direct links to my shops - http://www.secondsisteratmoarkjewelry.com
Components:
White Topaz faceted flat teardrops, garnet crystals, sterling silver box clasp.Read the comments (or add your own)
