Bold black agate necklace

Bold black agate necklace

I bought this black agate pendant years ago at a bead show in central Massachusetts, and it took me a very long time to decide what to do with it.  I first tried to design an elaborate beaded necklace with black, white, and gray crystals to complement the natural colors of the stone itself, but that plan never really spoke to me.  I moved on to large round onyx beads for a chunky look, but that didn’t feel right either.  It just seemed like I was trying too hard.  I was so happy when I found an extra black rubber cord necklace in my stash of supplies.  The cord sets off the pendant perfectly without overpowering it.  This simple yet striking necklace is available for sale in my Etsy shop.
