I am trying very very hard not to slip this beauty into my personal collection!
The most stunning Watermelon Tourmaline in gradient green hues are faceted and cut into chunky barrels. Rare and highly sought after, if you are also a Tourmaline lover, you would know it is such a treat to find chunky Tourmaline. The gemstone just does not grow in the mine with much girth, so having a rough that's thick enough to make a large faceted gems is rare. Let alone in watermelon colorways!
This strand of green Tourmaline had been in my personal gemstone collection for a decade. I was trying to find the best way to bring out its beauty. After 10 years of waiting, finally this design came to life!
I added ornate 18K yellow gold weighty solid beads to the Tourmaline barrels. The contrast between the vivid dark greens and the warm gold is eternal and oh so elegant. I then finished the ends of this necklace with a diamond studded dog clip closure and a thick closed jump ring. This green Tourmaline necklace at 15 inches is a very impactful choker length that will look amazing alone, as well as mesmerizing amongst your gold chain stack. I am sure your imagination has already taken you on a journey :)
Coming with the Green Tourmaline necklace is a weighty antique watch chain in two-tone 18k gold. I am not sure words are needed much. Just look at the braided triple chains, and the 2 stations of ornate geometric motifs, your heart should be singing already (at least mine does!) A screw-tight clasp comes with this antique watch chain. Measuring at 12 inches, you can easily add your own bracelet or necklace to this watch chain to create a look that's truly you.
When combined into 1 necklace, the euphoric feeling of such beauty is very much close to love. I might sound quite dramatic here in writing, but this is really quite a treat. A feast for the senses in my opinion.
