Purple Harmony
About this design:
The beauty of the stones alone inspired this necklace. I love it because it has a warm elegance. My cousin wears it and "Loves it, loves it, loves it!" And I quote her Facebook comment. It is nice to know that someone who appreciates it so much wears it often. She even bought a dress to go with the necklace.
Components:
Amethyst, quartz, adventurine, and a variety of silver plated decorative metal beads.Additional Images:
