14K Gold Watermelon Tourmaline Candy Necklace: 4mm Beads

The 14K Gold Watermelon Tourmaline Candy Necklace with 4mm beads is our most delicate strand, made for everyday wear and effortless layering. Tiny 3.5 to 4mm watermelon tourmaline beads in natural pink and green are hand-knotted on rainbow gradient silk we dye in our Key West studio, and finished with a solid 14K gold lobster clasp and hand-coiled gold French wire.

It's part of our signature Candy Necklace collection: fine gemstone jewelry inspired by the colorful candy necklaces of childhood, made with real stones, silk, and solid gold. This one gives you real gemstone color in a whisper-thin strand, light enough to wear every day and easy to stack with your favorite chains. It's one of a kind, so when it's gone, it's gone.

The Smallest Beads, the Softest Shimmer

At 3.5 to 4mm, these are the smallest beads in our watermelon tourmaline candy necklace collection. Small beads create a fine, dancing shimmer instead of bold blocks of color, so the necklace reads as dainty and refined. The rainbow silk peeks between each bead, adding a soft glow of color along the strand.
