Daily treat - Larimar necklace


"Larimar Necklace, Wire Wrapped Jewelry Handmade: This is a gorgeous larimar wire wrapped pendant on a chainmaille necklace. Larimar, also known as the dolphin stone, is only found in one place in the world, the Dominican Republic. This beautiful stone is completely natural, reminds me of the ocean a sky on a summer day.

This is a statement necklace. The pendant is large, measuring 2 1/2 inches from the top of the wire wrap to the bottom. The stone by itself is 2 inches long. It is wire wrapped in nickel silver, also known as German silver.

I made the chainmaille necklace by hand connecting one ring at a time. The necklace is made out nickel silver using the Byzantine chainmaille weave. I added blue chalcedony beads to compliment the necklace, and finished off the necklace by adding a strong magnetic clasp so that the necklace can be put on and removed with ease. The necklace is 18 3/4 inches long.

With this pretty stone, and all the other stones I wire wrap, my goal is to cleanly and securely wrap the stone, and to show off the stone in the best possible way.

All my jewelry is handcrafted, and made with care. All my work is guaranteed, and in the unlikely event that it needs to be repaired, I'll do it free of charge."
