denim necklace













I had originally started this necklace as something for a man to wear, but my penchant for color may have crossed the line between "masculine" and "feminine." (Of course, who am I to judge who wears what?)
Chunky rectangles of blackstone alternate with small shiny black round beads, with accents of tiny white glass cat's eyes. Even though the stone is called blackstone, the actual color is more of a dark gray, similar to what dark jeans left out in the sun look like. Because of this coloring, this necklace would look great with something casual like blue jeans and a white t-shirt, or something dressier like a classic little black dress. And, for the most part, the stones are smooth like glass (barring a few minor flaws that come with shaping beads out of natural stone.)
It closes with a hematite barrel clasp, which twists / screws to open and close.
Length: about 21 inches.
