Rhodonite Sunset Desert Dusk Necklace

Rhodonite is a manganese silicate mineral in pink to rose-red, with black manganese oxide veining that varies by specimen. The venation is not decorative. It is a record of the mineral's formation conditions, and no two stones read the same way.

Rhodonite stones in varied venation sit in a descending grid, framed by orange seed bead lattice loops with cobalt iridescent AB beads running through the connecting strands. Pink coral seed beads layer into the mix. Orange and amber glass cone-shaped fringe beads run along the base. A single purple glass bead hangs at center on its own strand.

Pair it with a tailored beige linen jumpsuit, a deep crimson silk blouse, or a charcoal wool turtleneck.

For weddings, milestone dinners, or any evening that calls for adornment with weight to it.
