This  all natural Garnet Cluster Bead strand is a simple, understated piece of jewelry, made from genuine garnet beads.   It does not have a clasp and is easy to slip over the head.  Good choice for arthritis sufferers (I know!)   Although this is not an original piece, I found it to be elegant, practicle and well made.  The beads are genuine Garnets.  The Garnet color goes especially well so many clothing colors.
