Charoite is a beautiful stone that ranges in color from light purple to black. It was discovered along the Charo River in Siberia, Russia during the late 1940’s, and is the only location the mineral has ever been found, thus accounting for it’s high price

I've used 2 different shapes here and separated them with tiny black beads and washers. 2 carved white beads for an extra kick have been included. This is a shot taken at dusk so the lighting isn't ideal and the colour isn't what it should be. In reality this is a beautiful deep amethyst tone with instances of lighter purple, black in some. This is a long necklace reaching my waist.
