Antique Porcelain & Kyanite

This 19" necklace showcases a sophisticated blend of natural materials and artisanal craftsmanship. Luminous 14mm kyanite stones are paired with hand-forged Thai Hilltribe sterling silver beads, creating a striking contrast of textures and tones. The centerpiece features an authentic Thai porcelain shard, measuring 2.5 x 2.75 inches, carefully set in sterling silver—a testament to the piece's historical significance and one-of-a-kind character. Strung on navy blue thread with knots between each bead for added security and visual interest, this necklace combines traditional techniques with timeless elegance. The convenient magnetic clasp ensures effortless fastening without compromising the design's aesthetic appeal. Kyanite, a naturally occurring mineral mined globally including deposits in West Virginia, North Carolina, and California, derives its name from the Greek word "kyanos," meaning blue. Prized for its distinctive crystalline structure and serene coloration, kyanite has been valued across cultures for centuries. This necklace celebrates both the stone's geological beauty and the skilled artistry required to transform raw materials into wearable art.
