Unbranded (Handmade/Artisan) · Jewelry & Watches > Necklaces

Material

Condition
Good - The stones appear intact without visible cracks. The cord shows slight signs of wear/pilling consistent with gentle use.

Description
A beautiful handcrafted boho-style necklace featuring six square-cut translucent Moonstone beads accented by small green Nephrite Jade rounds. The stones are expertly integrated into a brown braided macramé cord. It features a versatile adjustable sliding knot closure, allowing it to be worn as a choker or a longer chest-length piece. Neutral earth tones make it perfect for layering or everyday wear.
Key Features
Genuine semi-precious gemstones, adjustable length (one size fits all), bohemian/earthy aesthetic, durable hand-knotted construction.
Authenticity Indicators
Authenticity Confidence: High for materials, Low for brand. The stones show natural variation in color and internal 'adularescence' (glow), suggesting genuine minerals rather than glass. No maker's mark or metal tag is visible.
Flaws to Note
Slight fraying on the cord ends near the adjustment beads. Natural inclusions inside the moonstone are present but are part of the stone's character, not damage.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Etsy (as vintage or supplies), Poshmark, Mercari, or Depop. The 'vibe' of this piece fits perfectly with Depop's younger demographic or Poshmark's boutique shoppers.
Selling Tips
Use keywords like 'Boho', 'Crystal Healing', 'Gemstone', and 'Moonstone Jewelry'. Photograph against a white background to make the translucent stones 'pop', and show a photo of it being worn to demonstrate the adjustable length. Ensure the term 'Handmade' is in the title.
