An incredibly beautiful zgarda! Lapis lazuli and glowing Venetian glass! Five Hutsul crosses — replicas of ancient designs — and beads crafted in the style of Carpathian carving. So elegant, dainty, and charming — as they say in various corners of Ukraine. Traditionally, a zgarda refers to a necklace made from metal wire with Hutsul crosses strung onto it as a single unit. However, some Hutsuls also refer to necklaces with Venetian glass beads, other types of beads, or even coins instead of crosses as zgardas. This necklace is perfect for a variety of occasions and celebrations, particularly for Christmas. With its unique design and deep symbolism, it’s not just a piece of jewelry but also a precious family heirloom that can be passed down through generations. You can wear it on its own or pair it with a more elaborate necklace from our shop to create a layered effect that highlights your individuality.
Material: lapis lazuli, glass, brass, fittings. Bead size: 1.2 cm (0.47 inches), 0.6 cm (0.24 inches). Necklace length: 42 cm (16.5 inches) + an extender chain, allowing you to adjust the length to your preference.
