This necklace reminds me of black lace. The delicate strands actually have dimension - the outer one rests on the neck to form the bottom curve of a heart and the shortest - of black bugles - stands up and away. The beading includes black jet bugle beads and a facetted bar; tiny black glass beads; and grey toned faux pearls. The pendant is snowflake obsidian and all findings are sterling silver. The neck opening measures about 16.5" and the pendant drops 2".
