{"product_id":"crystal-halo-y-necklace","title":"Clear Quartz Y Necklace with Brass Halo and Gemstone Beads","description":"\u003cp\u003eA long necklace in the shape of a Y: a brass chain set with small moonstone and labradorite beads comes down to a hammered brass ring, and through the middle of that halo runs a beaded drop ending in a clear quartz point. At 23 inches, it falls well below the collarbone, so the halo lands on the breastbone and the crystal hangs just beneath it. TARA Projects makes it, a fair trade group that has worked with artisan families around Delhi for decades, and it is a necklace with real movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrystal inside a ring.\u003c\/strong\u003e The halo frames the quartz point, so that is where every glance lands.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBeads all the way.\u003c\/strong\u003e Moonstone and labradorite beads add small flashes along the chain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLong by design.\u003c\/strong\u003e 23 inches puts the drop in the open neckline of a shirt or a V-neck.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eY Necklace That Frames a Crystal\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Y necklace runs one long vertical line down the front, and this one adds a circle at the junction. \u003cstrong\u003eThat ring is what makes the piece readable from across a room\u003c\/strong\u003e; the clear quartz point below it catches light like a drop of water. The hammered surface of the halo breaks the shine into small facets, so the brass glows rather than glares.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClear quartz scores a 7 for hardness, so it shrugs off everyday contact, while moonstone and labradorite are a little softer, near 6 to 6.5. Keep the necklace in its own pouch so the beads do not rub against harder pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Wear a Long Lariat Necklace\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTreat it as the single statement of the outfit. Over a white tee or a thin black knit, the brass and the clear crystal pop against a plain ground; with a button-down, undo two buttons so the halo sits in the opening. The maker says it can be layered too: add one short chain near the collar, leaving a good gap above the ring so the two do not compete. A long drop also flatters a high-neck dress worn over the fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSmall Differences Between Stones\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery bead and point here is a natural stone, so the sheen on the moonstones, the flash on the labradorite and the clarity of the quartz vary a little from piece to piece. Expect the overall look in the photographs with tiny, one-off details of its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuartz Halo Necklace Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the drop twist when I wear it?\u003c\/strong\u003e The quartz point hangs freely and may turn, which is part of its sparkle.

Wear it over clothes rather than under them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat keeps the brass halo bright?\u003c\/strong\u003e A dry polishing cloth run over the ring and chain every few weeks. Perfume and lotion go on first, so they never reach the stones.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TARA Projects","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67646979211565,"sku":"010212","price":53.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0667\/4553\/2717\/files\/tara-projects-crystal-halo-y-necklace-1.jpg?v=1792003396","url":"https:\/\/aysire.com\/products\/crystal-halo-y-necklace","provider":"Aysire","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
