Multicolour Gemstone Bead & Hummingbird Necklace

Tiny faceted Zircon Gemstone beads in every soft colour — pink, mint, lavender, sky blue, sage — strung together on a continuous thread, with a detailed gold hummingbird pendant hanging at the centre. The beads catch light like a handful of confetti frozen mid-air. The bird anchors it all. You wouldn't think a rainbow necklace and a gold charm would work together. And then you put it on.

The hummingbird pendant is three-dimensional, with feathers and wings sculpted on both sides, so it looks finished however it turns. Hummingbirds are among the few birds that can fly backwards. Hand-stringing hundreds of tiny faceted zircon beads into one continuous strand takes time.

The pastel beads suit light, summery colours, and the gold pendant balances them. It sits close to the collarbone. Wear it with a white shirt or summer prints. A cheerful birthday gift. It pairs with the Hummingbird Threader Drop Earrings. Store it flat so the strand does not knot. Wipe the beads with a dry cloth after wearing.
