This triple strand 24 inch melange of white coin and button freshwater pearls is accented with rare Chinese red amber, peridot, red garnet, gold rutilated quartz, pink rutilated quartz, and golden freshwater pearls. The stones are hand knotted into the necklace with a stering silver clasp.

The centerpiece pendant is an ancient carved Jade cylinder depicting a lotus flower and a poem by the Chinese artist extolling the beauty of the seasons. I personally found this treasure on a trip to China. It is 20 inches long and includes rare yellow jade, smokey quartz and gold rutilated quartz triangular facets finished with a sterling clasp.

The rare pierced Bronze Tibetan seal pendant accents this necklace with style and panache. Freshwater golden pearls are combined with Chinese red coral, red lace agate tubular beads and gold rutilated quartz twists. Vintage red enamel beads complete the suite on 24k plated gold wire finished with an Italian  sterling clasp.

This elegant 36 inch necklace includes an Ethiopian coptik cross adorned with ancient etched silver tube beads from Afghanistan. Black freshwater pearls, iridescent labradorite, silver lace jasper tubes and gold rutilated quartz twists enhance the old world feel and bring the cultural blend up to date.
