Space divas, get ready for hydrogen-helium tantrums under an aura of luminous rings! Saturn and its nearest Moons shine and sparkle in a wearable homage to this dynamic and lovely planet. Pan, Atlas, Prometheus, Pandora, Epimetheus & Janus, Mimas, Methone, Enceladus, Pallene, Tethys with Calypso & Telesto, Dione with Helene & Polydeuces, and Rhea are placed on the necklace according to their proportional distance from Saturn: each "space" bead represents approximately ~20,000 kilometers (~12,400 miles).* Saturn's tumultuous liquid-gas atmosphere is represented as swirly striped Agate, and its radiant Rings are golden-hued Mother-of-Pearl Shell. Saturn's larger surrounding Moons are ethereal pink and lavendar Moonstone, and smaller moons are shiny glass. Designer: Laura Cesari for Chain of Being - Fall 2010 Based on a pattern from Nature
