This striking piece features a bold central five-petal flower accompanied by two matching floral sliding accent beads, all set with eye-catching turquoise-colored cabochons. The Stones (Collector’s Note) Unlike cheap plastic imitations, the focal cabochons are crafted from genuine, earth-mined reconstituted Wild Horse Magnesite. The stones showcase an incredibly intricate, natural multi-mineral matrix featuring deep rust-red iron-oxide veins and dark manganese inclusions that run completely through the material. Under backlighting, the stones display a beautiful, authentic semi-translucent natural glow.
