Handmade Silver Bead & Ancient Lapis Necklace by Ancient Influences

Beautiful blue lapis lazuli...a favorite of the Romans and Egyptians. Lapis was so revered it is often found among the burial goods with Egyptian mummies.

This necklace is made of tiny handmade silver beads, hand knotted on sky blue silk. The silver beads are asymmetrically accented by three rough lapis beads. The necklace is finished with a pendant of ancient lapis lazuli, a rough hewn disc with organic texture. The vintage and ancient beads are all from my personal collection.

As with all of the pieces from the Ancient Influences Collection, there is a limited quantity of these materials and no two are ever exactly alike.

Details.....The necklace has a wearable length of 20". The lapis disc measures 0.77" by 0.26", the lapis beads are 4.2mm and the silver beads measure 1.3mm.

All of the items in this collection are made using vintage bits & pieces and small imperfections are to be considered part of their charm.
