Rutilated Quartz Necklace 16"

A 16-inch necklace strung with rutilated quartz beads. The stones show the fine golden needles that run through the clear quartz, catching light as the strand moves.

Beaded necklaces of this kind appear in Thai and Lao shops as wearable pieces that also sit well on a tray or near a small altar. Naree features quartz bead strands on Uniquely Thai Lao TV for the way the inclusions give each necklace a distinct pattern without added color.

Wipe the beads with a soft cloth. The strand measures 16 inches closed; it sits at the collarbone on most wearers.
