If you are looking for a piece made from all-natural materials, this necklace is a beautiful example. Based on the visual characteristics and common materials used in this style of high-quality handmade jewelry, here is a breakdown of the stones:
The Main Stones (Teal/Blue Beads)
The primary beads are very likely Natural Blue Apatite or Blue Kyanite.
-
Blue Apatite: Known for those specific “neon” or “oceanic” teal-blue tones. It often has natural inclusions (small dark or light spots) that prove it is a real earth-mined stone.
-
Blue Kyanite: This stone often has a “stormy” look with silvery streaks and a unique fiber-like shimmer inside.
-
The Cut: These are micro-faceted, meaning they have been precision-cut with dozens of tiny flat surfaces to make the natural stone sparkle like a diamond when it moves.
The Accent Stones (Tassel Tips)
The small white beads at the ends of the tassels are Freshwater Pearls.
-
Unlike plastic or glass imitations, natural pearls have a soft, deep luster and are slightly cool to the touch. They provide a “organic” contrast to the sharp lines of the faceted blue stones.
How to Verify They are Natural
If you have the piece in hand, you can check for these “nature marks”:
-
Temperature: Natural gemstones and pearls feel cold to the touch initially, whereas plastic or resin beads feel room temperature.
-
Color Variation: In the image, you can see that no two beads are exactly the same shade. Some are a bit darker, and some have more green or grey—this natural variegation is the hallmark of real stone.
-
Weight: A necklace made of real Apatite or Kyanite will have a noticeable “heft” or weight to it that glass or plastic lacks.
Care Tip for Natural Stones
Since these are natural minerals (Apatite and Kyanite are softer than sapphires), they should be kept away from harsh chemicals like perfume or hairspray, which can dull their natural shine over time.
