The story that black widow spiders eat their mates is only sometimes true. She isn’t a ruthless man eater, but if there is something about the male’s behavior that feels off or if she is realllllllly hungry, she might snap him right up. My Black Widow Spider Necklace with Garnet Blood Drop is a delicate, feminine piece to complement the spider’s fierce reputation. Gold Black Widow Spider Necklaces feature a solid bronze spider charm, garnet briolette drop, and approximately 18-inch 14k gold-filled chain. Silver Black Widow Spider Necklaces feature solid sterling silver spiders, garnet drops, and approximately 18-inch sterling silver chains. Both versions are nickel-free. If you prefer a longer chain, add an extender to your order here and I will half it and add it to each side of your necklace for balance.
