A necklace like this, inspired by history (the Egyptians were known for their multi-stranded beaded necklaces and talismans), will be the perfect addition to your wardrobe. The colors are all, conveniently, in this year's Pantone Color Guide. Gorgeous and stylish!
This necklace is approximately 22 inches (56 centimeters) long, including the pendant. See the photo of the necklace against the ruler for details.
This is a one of a kind piece, I cannot get this exact focal bead again, so get this beautiful necklace while you can. I may have enough of the bead mix to make a bracelet or some matching earrings, please contact me if you are interested.

The goddess has always been a symbol of femininity and fertility, and I thought that this would be a perfect fit in a necklace for a young Cleopatra. By the time she was eighteen, she had witnessed her two sisters assassinations (they had each tried to take the throne from their father), her father's death, the decline of the Egyptian empire into perilous debt to Rome (thanks to her father) and had been forced to marry her own 12 year old brother. When Caesar came to Egypt to try to sort out Egypt's problems, I can see Cleopatra wearing a necklace like this to symbolize her fertility and womanhood. At that time, one of the only ways to stay safe on her throne would be to have outside help, and a strong man like Caesar would have been just the person to help her (he did, and she had his son, Cesarion).

My new collection is called NeoAmour, or, NewLove. It is based on jewelry of the past, that I have redesigned for today's woman. This is not just any jewelry: this jewelry is based on what powerful women of the past would have worn. Jewelry that symbolized power, wealth, status. Jewelry worn by Queens, Empresses, First Ladies (you know I'm talking about Jacqueline Kennedy-Onassis!), and others, to show that they were not to be trifled with. They were women, yes, but much more than 'just' women. These were the women who ruled front and center, or from behind the scenes, using all their intelligence and foresight to help their husbands, families and countries to overcome various struggles.
That is what we do today, is it not? We run our offices, businesses, homes, and sports teams. We run charity events, host dinner parties, travel all over the world to help others in need. We raise the next generation while working full time and looking fabulous. We are Women (hear us roar!)! We deserve to have beautiful jewelry that is made with strict attention to detail, with quality materials, that is limited in number - often one-of-a-kind - just like us!
Now you will have it.
Inspired by powerful women like Queen Elizabeth 1, Marie Antoinette, Boudicca the Celtic Warrior Queen, Cleopatra, and many more.
Designed for you.
NeoAmour - You Deserve It!
