- The necklace features a vibrant array of four striking tubes adorned with a mix of red and white, as well as yellow and white patterns. Scattered among these are porcelain and glass beads in bold yellow, deep red, fresh green, and crisp white, creating a lively visual tapestry. Accentuating the necklace are brass buttons that provide a striking contrast to the navy, pristine white, and turquoise porcelain beads. Pearls add an elegant touch, creating a playful yet sophisticated piece ideal for teenagers who enjoy expressing their unique style.
