Spring Chives is a 3 strand necklace that's my interpretation of the early chives coming up in my garden! I used Gray Cultured Pearls, Green Aventurine and Green Chalcedony, Rutilated Quartz teardrops and Spotted Quartz faceted rounds. It's finished with Delica Glass spacer beads and a Silver plated slide and lock clasp. The shortest strand is a generous 19 1/2 inches long and the longest one is 23 inches long.

Pearls are the birthstone for June. I used sparkly grayish green Cultured Pearls. crystaldigest.com says, "Pearls have been known to be a symbol of purity, innocence, and faith. In ancient times, they were thought to be the tears of the gods. While pearls differ from other crystals as they are not true minerals, they are still considered, by many, to have similar metaphysical powers to other precious stones.

According to crystalvaults.com, "Green Aventurine is known as the "Stone of Opportunity," thought to be the luckiest of all crystals, especially in manifesting prosperity and wealth, or for increasing favor in competitions or games of chance. Its winning energy makes it a great ally for boosting one’s chances in any situation – a first date, tax audit, even landing a promotion. One needs only to be near it to derive its benefits.

This beautiful stone, however, is not merely an attractor of luck, but one that aligns conditions so "opportunity" is inevitable. Green Aventurine releases old patterns, habits, and disappointments so new growth can take place.

It brings optimism and a zest for life, allowing one to move forward with confidence and to embrace change.
