handmade beaded necklace

My daughter pointed out to me that this piece uses several very primitive symbols, like concentric circles and jagged lines, which often represent watering holes and the rivers that connect them. Thus, Orinoco Flow became the name of this turquoise, amazonite, and pearl encrusted necklace. Bead embroidery surrounds the central turquoise donut, which is wrapped in gold-filled wire. Orinoco Flow adjusts from 21 to 23 inches.
