Handcrafted 8mm black coco beads with three natural white chip beads that encircle the necklace. Perfect for men, women and children. Lightweight and perfect for any occasion. I use a seven strand silver wire that is strong and will last a long time. There's NO fishing line in these necklaces!! The necklace is closed off with a silver lobster clasp. These come in a standard size of 18". I can also make them in 14", 16", and 20". Just let me know what size you need when you purchase it and I'll make it for you. I do make custom necklaces as well - so if you have an idea of something you'd like and can't find it - let me know and I might be able to make it for you. Thank you for looking
