Naruto Six Paths necklace IIa

Finished version of the "Six Paths II" necklace draft, now tied off with a clasp and adjustable extender. The little blip at the top right is the small counterweight at the end of the extender chain. Shown at the maximum length of ~27"; the apparent drape is a bit misleading, since the underlying "neck" scaffold is only 3" in diameter.

This design does have the (ahem) feature that the magatama on the far right are radially tilted while most of the others hang straight down, which has been a persistent problem so far. In other design versions, I haven't been able to get all of them radially tilted, and the all-downward models have had different problems with drape.

Six red jasper magatama on a double strand of 20lb-test gel-spun polymer w/ glass seed beads; sterling endcaps, clasp, and extender chain. The small white streak at the tip of the bottom-right magatama is a natural quartz inclusion in the stone, not a surface reflection.
