Michelle Weare Red Sandalwood Seed & Painted Burnie Bean Necklace (50cm)

Description

This unique 50cm necklace features a striking design of Red Sandalwood Seeds, carefully threaded onto four strands of cord and knotted together in six groups of four seeds. At the centre, a large painted Burnie Bean adds a bold touch, with intricate red, yellow, black, and brown designs. The other side mirrors the pattern with six more sets of knotted black cord, creating a balanced and modern look. Finished with a secure silver-coloured toggle clasp, this piece offers both style and a meaningful connection to Far North Queensland’s natural beauty.
