Item Number: 305
Time Left: CLOSED
Description
Box: Soapstone, 28" x 1.25"
Necklace: Agate, glass & bone tubes, 4" x 6" x 2"
This agate pendant necklace was made by the artist, Mary Nash. The agate pendant is strung with glass beads and hand carved, tubular bone beads with a rare earth magnetic clasp for ease of use. Agate is a very hard cryptocrystalline form of silica marked by clouds of color due to the infiltration of other minerals. The necklace comes with a hand carved, soap stone trinket box, which was made by the Besmo African tribe of Kenya, and a label on the bottom of the soap stone box identifies its origin.
