The overall look is approximately 95% earthy color with scattered blue turquoise, making every strand naturally distinctive and ideal for Native American Style, Southwestern, boho, rustic, artisan, and statement jewelry designs. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eQ: What size are the beads? \u003cbr\u003eA: The smooth heishi-style beads graduate approximately from 6mm to 15mm, with a thickness of approximately 3-4mm. Each strand is approximately 16 inches long. Because these are natural stone beads with individual cutting and polishing, slight variations in size, thickness, shape, matrix, and color are normal. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eQ: What colors should I expect? \u003cbr\u003eA: Expect an intentionally earthy palette dominated by brown matrix, tan, cream, muted green, gray, and warm natural tones, with a smaller amount of randomly distributed turquoise-blue color. Every strand is unique, so the exact placement of blue and matrix will vary. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eQ: Are these finished necklaces? \u003cbr\u003eA: No. These are loose gemstone beads on a temporary strand for jewelry making.
