The 8mm and 10mm round crystal beads in this necklace are Swarovski Crystal's light sapphire colour, to which they've applied their satin finish. The result is crystal the precise colour of well-washed denim. I've teamed them up with bright green Mojave turquoise, a stone which is only found here in California. Because of it's colour, it is often mistaken for gaspeite. I've spaced the larger beads with Italian peridot green seed beads, and finished the 17" strand with a sterling silver lobsterclaw clasp. It's a bit of a different combination, but a very attractive one ... Just what you'd expect from SPARKLE PLENTY.
