Smooth Turquoise Nugget-Knotted Necklace

Turquoise was one of the first gems to be mined.

Dating back to 5500BC, it was even found in Tutankhamun's tomb in Egypt. 

This gorgeous strand of 8-10mm smooth ovals is hand knotted on green silk, giving the necklace an easy comfortable drape.

Centered in the strand is an ornate 18kt vermeil oval bead.

Overall length is 17", with an oversized handmade clasp in 14kt gold fill metal.
