This custom hand-beaded/ hand-knotted necklace contains twelve genuine gemstones that have been described in the last book of the Bible: Revelation. The beads represent the 12 foundation stones of Heaven. The bracelet also contain pearls that represent the 12 gate entries of heaven and the 14kt gold beads represent the "streets paved with gold". I've put together 7 different links that reveal the research that describe different themes that the stones also represent. It is fascinating and a lovely gift that is truly unique as each genuine stone could not be found in uniform sizes, but all have quality and character! Part of the net proceeds go to various charities as well!
