Mint Chocolate Chip Necklace - Aquamarine and Black Tourmaline best in Sterling Silver

Growing up, my parents would always get mint chocolate chip ice cream from Baskin Robbins for special occasions. It was significant to them as they had it when my dad proposed to my mom and we all enjoyed it as well. This necklace shares some of those colors (although the green is more intense here than the light color in our ice cream), so it reminds me of that.

At the center is a raw chunk of aquamarine and beside it are two raw crystals of best black tourmaline. The tourmaline was found here in Southern California at a local mine by yours truly. The gemstones are set in sterling silver that has been given almost a gunmetal finish. The stones are suspended on chain for a total length of 18", closing with a lobster clasp. The stones are about 1/2"-3/4" wide.
