The delicate pink of this one of a kind, Rose Quartz 30mm buffalo in this handcrafted, double spiral bead woven necklace is very feminine. The pink of the Rose Quartz is highlighted by the Ceylon Pink Toho seed beads I used to weave the spiral. The ceylon finish is a pearlescent finish.Transparent Light Pink Matsuno seed beads are used on the spiral links that have Rose Quartz chips woven into them.

This necklace will adjust from 14 inches (35.56cm.) to 16 inches (40.64cm.). There are three peyote loops in the peyote toggle and loop closure and you can choose how long you wear the necklace by the loop you put the toggle in. Each end of the peyote toggle has a 4mm Rose Quartz bead on it.

The Rose Quartz chips that are woven into this necklace give it a very textured look and feel. The variety of the coloring in the chips adds a monochromatic ombre look.

The earrings that are included with this necklace are done in 4mm Rose Quartz beads and the same Pink Ceylon Toho beads that I used in the spiral. They are approx. one inch (2.54cm.) long and approx. 1/2 inch (1.27cm.) wide. The earrings hang from hypo-allergenic surgical steel ear wires.

Rose Quartz is believed to open our hearts and encourage us to be tender, peaceful and gentle and to enhance all forms of love. It is also said to teach forgiveness and tolerance.

Buffalo were important in the lives of Native Americans. It was a living, breathing sacrement. They provided food, clothing, shelter, tools and all the essentials for living. The buffalo was also an important part of their spiritual lives and the hunt itself was a ceremony.

This is the third in my Buffalo series.
