Black spinel & labradorite two-strand necklace, 2mm with 12x9mm AA labradorite ovals, 92cm

A long, layered necklace with labradorite at its heart and black spinel running through it.

Two strands of tiny 2mm faceted black spinel — near-black beads that read as fine, dark glitter — are broken at intervals by AA quality 12x9mm labradorite ovals. Each labradorite stone is smooth and polished with a translucent body and a shifting play of colour across its surface: flashes of light blue, grey and the occasional hint of yellow that move as the stone turns. Smaller cream-white pearls are spaced more frequently along the strands, and each stone and pearl is flanked by a tiny gold-toned spacer bead so the contrast reads cleanly.

At 92cm the necklace sits well below the bust and can be worn as a single long loop, doubled for a shorter layered look, or knotted. Both strands meet at a gold-tone lobster claw clasp with an extender chain, so the length can be adjusted.

Note: Labradorite is a natural stone, so the strength and colour of the flash varies from stone to stone — differences between pieces are part of the stone, not a fault.

Care: Keep away from water and perfume; wipe with a soft dry cloth and store flat to protect the stone surfaces and the gold-toned fittings.
