Turquoise Picasso with a luster finish sparkles in this dragon-scale beaded necklace lei. All these "Magatama beads" are arranged in one direction, so it creates a smooth feel, much like it would seem to be if, indeed, dragon scale. These beads are some of the largest glass beads made by manufacturers in Japan. By weaving over 900 Magatama beads in this necklace, no two are alike. This statement necklace lei is finished with an acrylic magnet end cap that has a very strong hold.
Our necklaces feel wonderful to wear and require little to almost no care. We use a clean, dry towel every few months to keep dust-free and bright. This beautiful hand-crafted necklace was made using hundreds of glass beads from around the world that are meticulously loaded onto multiple cords and then woven together on a Japanese Marudai braiding stand.
