This 18k gold plated necklace features strands of small cylinder beads and is secured with a magnetic closure. Measuring 19 inches in length, it is handmade in Brazil and offers a chic and modern touch to any ensemble. Every piece of jewelry is handmade and delicate. To enjoy the jewelry for a long time, please use the appropriate care. Our collections consist of precious metals and non-precious metals (brass and base metal) and are plated in 18K gold. We recommend cleaning the jewelry by using a brush with soap and water, and can use a hair dryer to avoid any damage caused by rust. Please avoid direct contact with water (salt or fresh), excessive perspiration, and chemicals such as chlorine, sulfur, perfume, detergent, and lotion. Any chemical exposure might deteriorate the quality of plating on the metal and gemstones. Because most of the stones used in our collection are natural semi-precious stones, they may vary in shape, size, and color. Inclusions can be seen in natural stones and is a part of their beauty. Most gemstones do not stand the force of cleaning agents, polishing cloth, or ultrasonic cleaners.
