Ukrainian Gerdan Beaded Necklace - Geometric Black & Amber Necklace

Immerse yourself in authentic Ukrainian jewelry heritage with this handcrafted "Gerdan" (ґердан) — a traditional beaded necklace celebrating timeless geometric symbolism. Meticulously handwoven bead by bead using premium Czech Preciosa glass seed beads, this piece features an openwork lace pattern centered around sacred geometric diamond motifs. The dramatic jet-black background is accented with warm amber-orange and light-catching metallic silver-grey beads, creating a striking contrast that feels both rooted in folk tradition and boldly contemporary. Designed to lay flat and supple across the collarbone, it serves as a distinctive statement piece for linen clothing, minimal shirts, and evening wear alike. --- ✦ MADE TO ORDER & CUSTOM SIZING ✦ Because this necklace looks best when tailored to your exact neckline, each piece is handcrafted individually to your measurements: • How to order your custom size: Please measure your preferred necklace length along your collarbone where you would like the upper edge to sit, and write the measurement in centimeters (cm) or inches in the "Note to Designer" box at checkout • Adjustable finish: The beaded panel will be woven precisely to your specified length and finished with a durable lobster clasp and an extension chain, giving you flexibility to adjust the tightness for all-day comfort. • Questions about measuring?
