Duyssen Necklace Carnelian Rectangles and Blue River Shell

This necklace has a crisp, structured rhythm built from warm and cool contrasts.

The main elements are carnelian rectangles—smooth, slightly elongated pieces in rich shades of burnt orange, deep amber, and reddish rust. Their flat, geometric shape gives the necklace a sense of order and direction, while the natural variations in the stone keep it grounded and organic.

Between these bold sections are small, round blue river shell beads. Their soft, watery blues introduce a cool contrast to the warmth of the carnelian, breaking up the intensity with lighter, more fluid color. They add a gentle shimmer, like flashes of water between sunlit stone.

Silver spacer beads are placed throughout the design, acting as reflective punctuation points. Their metallic shine adds brightness and definition, separating the carnelian and shell elements while tying the warm and cool tones together with a neutral accent.

Overall, the necklace feels balanced and rhythmic—structured yet natural, with a strong interplay between fiery earth tones and calming ocean blues, all unified by subtle silver highlights.

Necklace is 18" in length
