Sodalite Desert Dusk Necklace

Sodalite is a blue tectosilicate mineral with white calcite veining, sourced from Brazil, Canada, and Namibia. The blue ranges from pale periwinkle to deep slate depending on the specimen. Not dyed. The color and veining are geological.

Chunky sodalite stones sit in a descending grid, connected by looped beadwork in matte peach and bright blue tube beads. Iridescent glass teardrops run along the base for movement. A single deep cobalt glass bead hangs at center on its own strand.

Pair it with a rust crewneck dress, a charcoal silk sheath, or a structured button-down and trousers.

For weddings, milestone dinners, or a workday that wants architecture, not jewelry.
