African Turquoise Warrior Necklace

I was putting the finishing touches on this necklace when the original (much smaller and more delicate) pendant splintered in my hands. I was so bummed!  So I started testing out other pendants one by one--about 40 of them--and finally, at the end, I found this incredible stone left over from many years ago that seemed to fit even better than the first pendant I had chosen.  Funny how it works that way sometimes, isn't it?    Like this was always meant to be the focal point of this necklace--I just had to realize it.  Now the energy of the African turquoise seems to fit perfectly with the energy of this powerful red creek jasper pendant.  Highlighted with orange aventurine and small disks of gold. Luxuriously long at 20" and finished with a decorative gold toggle clasp.   N212
