Welcome to Kathy's Beaded Blessings

Quality Crafted Unique Jewelry

Genuine Amazonite, Faceted Blue Quartz & Hematite

Double Strand Necklace

with Silvery Blue Mother of Pearl

20" with 2" sterling silver chain extender 

THIS is my all time favorite gemstone mix! Imagine it laying against your skin, nice and cool while glowing with color! These tones are perfect for all complexions and wore year round. At 20 to 22" it is perfect to pop under a jacket or over a turtleneck! These gems are AAA gorgeous, large & powerful while feminine! I love how these dark Gray Hematites work with these tones of blues! Zoom the photos to see how truly beautiful this is!

Soft powdery Blue Amazonite and Brilliant Blue Quartz with shiny Hematite! And just gorgeous Mother of Pearl Coin beads that shimmer and shine! This would look beautiful with the trendy look of gun metals! I put in many photos so you can see just how lovely these gemstones are! Nope, I didn't alter the photos at all, these gems are purely beautiful!

This necklace is made with 100% genuine soft powdery blue Amazonite; flat ovals at 18 x 13 x 6mm thick, that is almost 3/4" long as well as 8mm rounds that I capped with beautiful Bali silver diamond cut caps! They are simply gorgeous in color and style! I also used beautiful, faceted Blue Quartz orbs that are rather large (and expensive) at 16mm and 12mm in size! They are a beautiful sky blue, capped with Bali silver, swirl caps that allow for the light to go in and bounce around before shooting out and covering your neckline with reflections! I am telling you, they are just gorgeous! I also used a few different sizes of charcoal black Hematite rounds and discs with the prettiest Mother of Pearls coin beads I ever saw! They have a high shine luster, almost like a mirror of silvery/blue. A couple of the Mother of Pearl coin beads have those natural "water spotting" that they typically have, that are shown in the photos and do not devalue the beauty at all. Other than that, these gemstones are about flawless!

I think you will love how these colors work together in your wardrobe with all the blues, lovely on white and just beautiful against grays. Oh jeesh, can't you see it with your silver jewelry? Or like I said, build your gun metal jewelry wardrobe with this piece! I am sure this gunmetal trend is here to stay.

You can wear this from 20 inches to a little over 22 inches clipping it into the heavy duty sterling silver chain with the 1" large Bali Silver lobster claw clip that has a heart, for easy on - easy off. I hung a cute little Amazonite faceted briolette on the chain, that will drape down your back!

Throughout these strands I used decorative Bali silver spacer beads and fancy ornate beadcaps.

Silly ole photos! I flip them the correct direction and it confirms and then they flip back sideways!  I guess I can be glad it isn't all of them flipping out today!


Estimate sizes are shown inside of the photos: 25mm = 1"  Yes, because this is 100% gemstones and MoP, this double strand is heavier than most necklaces.

There is a pair of Blue Quartz dangle earrings shown in the listing sold  separately in my ebay store. Or, I can make you a mixed gemstone pair of earrings dangling from a chain? Or all black Hematite? Or how about a lovely bracelet?!!!

This double strand necklace is crimped 8 times, 4 times on each side for added security and the unsightly crimps are covered.A crimp cover is a split bead that I fold down around the crimp and pinch it together, leaving a barely noticeable but unavoidable seam. This is not a broken or cheap bead. They are either gold plated or silver plated, depending on the metal used in your piece.

If there is a coin in the photos it is so you can compare sizes and is not included with this piece.

Also, I have put approximate sizes in the photos. Remember, one inch = 25mm

~~~

This necklace is strung on heavy duty, thick yet flexible 29 strand cable wire that is coated so it will not rust, break or snag your clothing! It won't break but if it does, but it won't, you are covered with KATHY'S EXTENDED KINDNESS WARRANTY! Don't fret, my items don't break.

I apologize but I have decided to stop repairing other beaders items. Please go back to where you bought your item to see if the seller will fix it for you. It is taking up too much of my time and does not cover my costs. Thanks for understanding.

You don't have to read all the boring legal words below. There are no hidden meanings in my listings, no words to seek out and find to read between the lines. The disclaimers below is simply to cover myself for just in case; like the one that thought she would get one key chain for each photo.

A word about Bali, Tibetan, German silver and/or gold. I love these type of metals as they do not peel, tarnish or loose their original beauty. They are not required by law to disclose their gold or silver content therefor you will not find a stamping like .925 silver or 14kt gold on the beads, charm holders, clasps, etc.

Yes, I did put in quite a few photos, this is so you can make an informed decision to buy this piece for yourself or a deserving friend.

A crimp bead cover is a split bead that folds down and around the crimp. It does leave an unavoidable seam that is barely noticeable. I mention this because after a time consuming struggle a fellow beading ebayer has lost her store because one buyer thought this crimp cover was a broken or plastic bead and left a Negative before even asking the seller about it! Small stores are greatly effected by one N feedback.

If there is a coin in the photos, it is for size comparison only and does not come with the listed item.

Kathy's Extended Warranty is for your security and free! If your item breaks, which it won't but if it does, I will repair it for free! I even pay for all postage! It won't break, but if it does, simply email me so I can send you a SASE to return the beads to me and I will repair it. Please tie off your item so as to keep as many of the beads on the strand as possible so I can recreate the same pattern. It won't break. I have not been abused or used yet because my items don't break; therefore I have not set a time duration to this policy. Within reason, I guess...

Also, please, realize just how powerful your feedback is and that ONE negative AND even a NEUTRAL can and DOES shut down small sellers. One N feedback can cause us to loose our rights to be added to ebays search engines, thus no one can find our listings!) Feedback can have very detrimental consquenses, please know what your opinion is very powerful so please consider how human sellers are.

DID YOU KNOW? Neutral and Negative feedbacks have the same consequences for a seller therefore any N feedback will shut down a small seller like me. Please, contact me if you are unhappy and give me the chance to make you happy and satisfied. If something has gone wrong, it was completely accidental. I promise to NEVER lie, cheat or steal from you.

And, a little info about the 5 star rating program in Ebay regarding stars for sellers. A seller is removed if they average 4.2 stars and charged more for 4.8 or less.  4 is not a B as in a report card, it is a D and F.  We HAVE to receive 5 of 5 stars each and every time. I strive for perfection, not only for these ratings but because you deserve such service. What is worse is that 2 of the 4 of the stars your seller has no control over and yet we are graded as if we do. We should not be held responsible for how long it takes for delivery but for how SOON WE ACTUALLY SHIPPED IT and for the quality of the packaging. I ship within 24 hours Monday through Friday. I list it as 2 days to protect myself for in case I can't.

Also, these little stars also determine how much your seller pays in fees so please help keep prices and fees down by contacting the seller if there is a problem to resolve and leave appropriate feedback and star ratings after the problem is rectified.
