Quartz, Labradorite, Pearl, and Gold Necklace

I made this necklace so many years ago that I do not remember the name of the pink stones. I think they were some kind of quartz, possibly a man-made bead. Is there such a thing as strawberry quartz?

The six blue beads are good quality labradorite. As is typical of labradorite, they glow from within when the light hits them just right. Read more about it here.

Because I rarely wear these colors, I've contemplated taking this necklace apart and using the beads for another project, but I always stop myself because I find this necklace so pleasing.
