Available from Mojo's Beads is a replica of a love bead necklace that Davy Jones of the Monkees wore as seen in the pictures.
In 1967 Davy Jones started wearing these love beads after receiving them as a gift from photographer Henry Diltz. He is the same person that made Jim Morrison's famous Cobra Necklace (see my other items). Teen magazines, like 16 and Tiger Beat, began selling them for a short period.
This necklace is not being sold by anyone at all (eBay, Google, stores, online shops, rock 'n roll memorabilia shops, etc). As of 2013-01-01 (eBay auction #261149546634), Mojo's Beads has come through yet again with an incredible original design of a replica necklace worn by Davy Jones.
As with all my necklaces, it's made with the highest quality Czech beads and a very strong nylon cord made for bead making (C-Lon 0.5mm). The length is approximately 30" (plus or minus one inch). Custom lengths available (shorter or longer), email me with inquiries BEFORE purchasing. The ends are not tied with a permanent knot so that you can customize the length. I personally just tie a surgeon's knot. It's very easy to do and incredibly strong. The necklace will come tied with a temporary knot. If you would like me to tie a permanent knot please message me to do so during the purchase (do not wait to message me with instructions/inquiries as I often fill and ship my orders very fast, often within twenty minutes after I receive the order!).
I can also make this design using the same size smaller beads that were used on Davy's necklace. Email me if inquiring about that option.
