To people who like the details and human touch behind the pieces of creative work, there is a certain excitement in identifying a work that tells a story. Multiple-strand turquoise necklaces and large gemstone necklaces are gaining popularity not just as fashion statements, but as emblematic pieces highlighting the skill and patience of artisans around the world. These necklaces not only provide decoration, but they also have a story of culture, craft, and heritage.
