"Cheerful & Versatile Necklace Art"
This cheerful work of art perfectly blends my Moms jewelry sensibilities with my own. Mom has shown me necklaces in the past with large, chunky colored wood beads that I found unappealing. When I saw this necklace from Sumalee, I knew it perfectly combined the colors & materials Mom likes, with the elegance and more delicate proportions I prefer. I gave the longer necklace to Mom for her Birthday this week, and she loves it! She also read the descriptive card that came with the necklace, and was delighted that Sumalee employs those from an older generation to make the beautiful pieces. This was a hit as a gift, and I was proud to give it. Beautiful work, Sumalee!

"Red Radience"
Already had the necklace and could not believe finding this bracelet to match. I love its vibrant color and the adjustability. It is a miniature torsade. It is made well and shipped quickly and can not wait to wear it often.

"Beautiful necklace!"
Love this colorful, substantial necklace. I just adore turquoise, but it can be very heavy. This is lightweight and adds that lovely turquoise pop of color to your wardrobe! Very well made and a versatile addition to my wardrobe! Thank you Sumalee Nawakul!

"Seeing Red!"
Just arrived. This torsade necklace is perfect. Love the rich red color. The knotting in between is something one does not usually find as a feature of this style and price point. The knotting does not take away from the beads themselves and that is an added plus. The adjustability is fabulous so easily achieved and can be donned and removed with ease. Two lengths and twisting for a true torsade make for a striking and memorable signature piece worn around the neck, whether wearing a dress or teeshirt. Plan to enjoy it. Lightweight and that adds to the perfection of this torsade. Wish more stars could be given because I see red so beautifully done.
