Dreamy Meadow Necklace
by Elaina W on 01/30/20
About this design:
For this design, I made a bead chain with Green Aventurine, Tanzanite, & Crystal. I then attached it to a new Nunn Design focal. To finish, I added a piece of Rainbow Fluorite & a Prasiolite link- I love how the Green Aventurine & Tanzanite really bring out the colors of the fluorite! This necklace would also look great with an amethyst slice as the focal.
