Have Faith!  Named for Job, the biblical character in the Old Testament, who endured great suffering.  There is a unanimous agreement that the shape of these beads represents tears, however who's tears is a point of disagreement as they are also known as Saint Mary's tears, David's tears, and Christ's tears.  For centuries, this tropical wild grass seed has been gathered as a food as well as for decorative craft and jewelry making.  When they are harvested, they already have a polished sheen and a natural hole through them.  This is a set of 2 necklaces, one slightly smaller than the other.  Wear them together or separately.  The tears are accented by sage green seeds beads and natural bamboo, both have silver barrell clasps, one has a tiny dangling pewter "Faith" pendant.
