Dragonfly Leather Beaded Boho Necklace

- Woodland Statement Jewelry -

This boho statement necklace features a bold green dragonfly pendant, Mykonos ceramic beads, carnelian gemstone rounds, and shiny pewter beads. The pendant was beautifully made in the USA by a polymer-clay artisan, and depicts a stamped dragonfly with its wings outstretched against a radiant circle of sunlight. It is a genuine eye-catcher and highly positive symbol.

The pendant is combined with the following to create a one-of-a-kind boho tribal piece with woodland suggestions:
• Pewter round beads with sun symbol
• Forest green and lime green Mykonos ceramic beads (made in Greece)
• Rich carnelian round beads
• Pewter daisy spacer beads
• Pewter knobbed rondelle spacers
• Sterling silver jump ring
• Stainless steel lobster clasp
• Three-inch extender chain
• Genuine brown leather (made in the USA)
• Pewter cord ends

All of these elements were chosen to enhance the pendant and bring color and balance to the entire piece. The necklace's basic length is approximately 24 inches, with 3 inches more added by the extender chain.

Bright and bold, with bohemian styling and an inspirational dragonfly pendant, this special OOAK piece was handmade beaded by me with great care, thought, and best wishes for its destined wearer. It comes tucked into an eco-friendly box and wrapped for giving. It would make a perfect gift for anyone who loves dragonflies and would appreciate its positive meaning and encouragement toward self-growth. Perhaps that someone is you!

About the Dragonfly Symbol
Dragonflies symbolize the discovery of the self and self-identity and the development of insight into the truth beyond distracting illusions. Because of their relatively brief life as adult insects, dragonflies also evoke the ancient Roman motto "Carpe diem" ("Seize the day"). As symbols, these beautiful creatures inspire us to live life as fully as possible and to realize that personal growth is an important part of our lives.

About Carnelian
Lovely warm carnelian belongs to the quartz family and is a type of chalcedony. A rich and regal-looking gemstone, it has been used for jewelry since ancient times. Traditional beliefs associate it with healing, courage building, fear dispelling, and protection against negative forces (as a talisman). It is also believed to focus energy and sharpen mental clarity in preparation for action.
