Watermelon Tourmaline Beaded Necklace
More Than Jewelry. It’s You, the Treasure.
Natural watermelon tourmaline is one of those stones that looks almost too good to be real blush pink fading into green at the edges, like a slice of the fruit it's named for. This necklace strings together faceted watermelon tourmaline beads, each one approximately 3mm, so the color shifts and catches light with every movement. Three cubic zirconia crystals are scattered through the beaded gemstone necklace, adding bright diamond-like flashes that play off the tourmaline's natural warmth.
The beads and findings are 14k gold filled which means the gold layer is substantially thicker and far more durable for everyday wear. The color won't fade on your skin.
It arrives ready to wear at 16, 18, or 20 inches with a 1-inch extender, so you can adjust it depending upon the neckline. If you need a different length entirely, just leave a note at checkout and Kate will make it to your measurements.
This is unquestionably a color pop, but the combination of cool tones and warm gold means you can wear it all year long. Tourmaline is also October's birthstone, which makes this a genuinely special gift for anyone with an autumn birthday.
Every piece is handmade by Kate in her Florida studio. No two are identical.
- Stone: Natural watermelon tourmaline, faceted beads, ~3mm. Perfect gift for October Birthday
- Accent stones: 3 cubic zirconia crystals
- Metal: 14k gold filled findings and elements
- Length: 16", 18", 20" with 1" extender. Custom length: Available on request — add a note at checkout
Every piece starts with materials I would wear every day myself. USA made 14k gold filled or sterling silver, natural stones, and pressed flowers I set by hand. Here is exactly what goes into each part.
14k Gold Filled
Gold filled is not plating. A thick layer of solid 14k gold is bonded to a jeweler's brass core under heat and pressure, so the piece carries about 100 times more gold than a thin flash plate. That is why it holds its color through daily wear instead of rubbing thin at the edges.
925 Sterling Silver
Solid sterling, bright and cool against the skin. I also offer an oxidized finish, a soft blackened patina that deepens the look of a stack and sits beautifully next to your gold pieces.
Signature Crystals
This is the part I also make by hand. Semi-precious gemstones, real dried botanicals, and Swarovski crystals, arranged one at a time and sealed under UV stable resin that stays glass-clear rather than yellowing. Because the elements are natural, no two are ever exactly alike.
Made in My Florida Studio
I make every piece to order in my studio here in Florida. Small differences in flower placement, stone color, or the depth of a crystal are part of the design, not a flaw.
Made for Sensitive Ears and Skin
My fashion studs use surgical steel posts and backs, chosen for ears that react to almost everything else.
Artisan Frames (Pendants and Earrings)
The statement frames are lead free and nickel free brass, finished with a heavy gold plate for a rich, high-shine luster.
