At the center, giant lepidolite orbs alternate with leafy green serpentine doughnut rondels and small rounds of what's called syenite sodalite. It comes from my homelands, colloquially called Yooperlite.
Syenite minerals have a drastic color shift under ultra-violet light, which can range from gold and bronze to, as here with the sodalite, hot pink and purple shades. The rest of the round beads consists of South Sea shell "pearls" in two sizes and natural ruby spheres interspersed with the syenite.
