Phantom quartz grows in layers, and in this white "snowflake" variety the layers hang inside the crystal like snow suspended in ice. The strand is mostly that quiet white, broken by amazonite in river-teal — the Chinese name for amazonite means "sky river stone" — and centred on a single barrel bead of Hetian jade, the nephrite prized in China for thousands of years. A hand-tied tassel in river colours finishes the double wrap. Snow, river, and one calm crossing.
