SOLD!!! Western Style is a 3 strand Turquoise necklace that features 2 sizes and strands of faceted round Turquoise and 1 strand of oval nuggets with a lovely teardrop center pendant. This necklace has all smaller sized beads so it's more delicate than some of my other 3 strand necklaces. The short strand is 17 inches long and the longest one is 20 inches long not including the drop which ads 1 3/4 inches. I used Delica Glass spacer beads and a silver filled round toggle clasp.

Turquoise is said to bring the "Wisdom of the Ancient Ones" to those who wear it! It's also the birthstone for December.

According to charmsoflight.com, "Turquoise is a purification stone. It dispels negative energy and can be worn to protect against outside influences or pollutants in the atmosphere. Turquoise balances and aligns all the chakras, stabilising mood swings and instilling inner calm. It is excellent for depression and exhaustion, it also has the power to prevent panic attacks. Turquoise promotes self-realisation and assists creative problem solving. It is a symbol of friendship, and stimulates romantic love.

Turquoise aids in the absorption of nutrients, enhances the immune system, stimulates the regeneration of tissue, and heals the whole body. It contains anti-inflammatory and detoxifying effects, and alleviates cramps and pain. Turquoise purifies lungs, soothes and clears sore throats, and heals the eyes, including cataracts. It neutralises over-acidity, benefits rheumatism, gout, stomach problems, and viral infections."

These beads range from aqua to blue and shades of brown and green. It will look great on any skin tone!
