Serpentine Nugget Bead Necklace

A hand-strung bead necklace with amethyst and green serpentine, finished with a flat Atlantisite (stichtite-serpentine) pebble bead in the centre. Fastened with a sterling silver clasp gilt in matte-finished 18-carat yellow gold. Affectionately known as the 'dino' necklace. 

The stones in this necklace are cut into irregular facetted nugget beads, and they vary naturally in tone and texture, with marbled inclusions characteristic of these vibrant gemstones. As such, each bead is slightly different, coming together to form an organic, one-of-a-kind piece.
