The Mixed Gemstone Beaded Candy Necklace is a soft, colorful strand made for everyday joy. Ametrine, citrine, rose quartz, green amethyst, and freshwater pearls are hand-knotted on silk we custom dye lavender in our Key West studio, then finished with hand-coiled gold French wire and an ethically sourced 14K gold-filled S-clasp.
At 18 inches, it sits just below the collarbone. It's one of a kind, so the strand pictured is exactly the one you'll receive.
The Palette: Five Stones in Harmony
Each bead is hand-selected to balance soft pastels with bright pops of color. Pink rose quartz and pale green amethyst set a gentle base, golden citrine adds warmth, ametrine brings its purple-and-gold blend, and freshwater pearls add a soft glow. The lavender silk ties every color together.
What Is Ametrine?
Ametrine is a natural quartz that combines purple amethyst and golden citrine in a single crystal, so each bead shows two colors at once.
What Is Green Amethyst?
Green amethyst, also called prasiolite, is a pale, minty green quartz. Its soft color pairs beautifully with pink rose quartz.
Handmade With Fine-Jewelry Techniques
Hand-Knotted Silk
A silk knot between every bead keeps the stones from rubbing and means that if the strand ever breaks, you'll lose at most one bead. The silk also gives the necklace a soft, fluid drape.
Hand-Coiled French Wire
Where the silk meets the clasp, a tiny coil of gold French wire protects the thread from friction, so your necklace stays secure for years.
