In creating this necklace and earring jewelry set I combined 4 mm faceted garnet beads, rose quartz twist beads, and sterling silver findings including a spring ring clasp, 3 mm faceted beads, ear wires and 8 mm bead end caps. The necklace is 18" in length and earrings are 1 1/8" plus the ear wires. The rose quartz beads are about 16 mm by 8 mm. The costly sterling bead caps add an expensive look to the set. It is very difficult to scan an image that shows the true pale color of rose quartz. I can afford to use so many sterling beads as I bought kilos of findings years ago as an investment when they were far less expensive.
