……………………….This necklace on the Linea site is described as “silver”………That is doing these faceted beads a disservice. Yes, they are silver, but that is only half of the story. Each bead is half SILVER and half CLEAR SPARKLY CRYSTAL, which gives the necklace beautiful light refraction causing it to glisten…..It is just not a simple silver bead necklace!…………On BLACK, HEATHER CHARCOAL GREY, and gleaming summer WHITE [as shown above] the necklace looks spectacular. On colors, the clear crystal part of the bead will allow the color to peek through, so it is a necklace for all SEASONS and all COLORS……When you want a more tailored earring any silver hoop or stud will work perfectly with the SILVER CHAIN…From snowy winter days to sunny summer days, the Silver and Crystal will always be a go to necklace…………………….enjoy……………..much Love…………………….Louis
