Be Brave: Carnelian Sardonyx Flower Necklace for Fall

 Here's a sensual combination of gemstones that is perfect for fall.  This one of a kind flower necklace was inspired by a quotation from Anais Nin:
There came a time when the risk to remain tight in the bud was far more painful than the risk it took to blossom.
This beautiful hand carved solid natural carnelian flower blossom is stunning.  I've accented it with luscious natural sardonyx ovals beads in burnt orange, cream golden yellow and other gorgeous autumn leaves colors.  With gold accents, this is a statement piece of handmade jewelry.

Statement Jewelry: Autumn Carnelian Necklace


This semi chunky carnelian and marble gemstone necklace is perfect for this season.  Gorgeous deep burnt orange carnelian really picks up the deep persimmon veins in this natural canyon marble.  Semi chunky, meaning that it looks pretty large in scale, yet isn't.  Big chubby ovals graduate to smaller round beads for comfortable wearing.  Beautifully sleek, gray hematite beads really accent the marble and carnelian beads.  Silver accents round out this jewelry piece.

Fall for this Statement Necklace

Though Mother Nature can't seem to make up her mind, these crisp, cool mornings can only mean that autumn is making her entrance.  You can, too, with this handmade statement necklace.

Created with natural oval beads of Canyon Marble in gray, burnt orange, creamy white and taupe, combined with sleek metallic gray Hematite, plus beautiful, big long oval beads of natural Carnelian.  Silver accents complete the look.  Fabulous colors any time, but especially for fall.  This necklace is what I like to call semi chunky.  It has a nice big scale, without being overwhelming or very heavy to wear in comfort.

Statement Jewelry for Fall: Sardonyx Floral Necklace



I adore Fall.  It's my favorite season of the year.  I love the crisp fall nights and the good excuse to light a crackling fire.  I love the warm autumn summer days when the sunshine seems more golden.  And I'm absolutely crazy about all the fall color as the leaves turn. 

If you enjoy a good Scarlet Maple or Sweet Gum in the autumn sun, then you should take a look at this carnelian and sardonyx floral necklace.  Big chunky gemstone beads in fabulous autumn colors.  It's a truly sensual combination of burnt orange, cream, golden yellow and more.  Pretty spectacular and just plain pretty, too, if you know what I mean.
