Color outside the lines! I'm obsessed with "tourmaline" quartz. The colors are out of this world. Disclosure...these natural quartz beads are dyed to create these dynamic colors. Delicious colors do occur naturally in tourmaline, but the price and rarity is...extreme. I'm perfectly happy with these. From these yummies, I strung pink topaz sparklers with the 22k "S" hook clasp placed asymmetrically. Check out examples of (sold separate) pendants hanging on either the beads or on the clasp. I love this. One of a kind...and yes; for a one of a kind woman.
