Ancient Lapis and Carnelian Necklace

This simple but vibrant necklace features the classic combination of ancient middle eastern carnelian in a warm orange tone, along with ancient Afghani lapis in a deep regal blue. Lapis and carnelian are complementary colours, and this combination is seen in ancient jewelry from around the world, in ancient times and modern.

I have accented these special stone beads with silver spacers and my own drops and signature serpent hook clasp in Sterling silver. A timeless piece to wear alone, or layered with other necklaces.
