Amazonite Pendant, Fascinating Markings

large amazonite pendant

I could not resist these fascinating amazonite pendants. Not only are they extra large but each one has a different abstract "scene" as a result of the pyrite and black tourmaline inclusions. Some resemble the coastline with ocean view, some look like a mountain slope with blue sky & wispy clouds, etc. Size is about 42x30mm, 1-3/4" high and 1.5" wide. Smoothly polished. Side drilled at narrow end. Photo slightly reduced. Amazonite large pendant, OLD PRICE $3.50 each, 4 for $11.99 NEW PRICE 4 FOR $7.99, .

Ocean Jasper Shapes

jasper top drills

Above left, just a suggestion of the fascination of ocean jasper. Each bead is interesting for the unique markings in stripes, whorls, dots, spatters, blotches, dapples, and waves. The colors are primarily a good agate green but include rust, beige, blue-gray, brown, black-green, white, salmon, pale pink, light gray. The top strand beads are 25mm x 15mm. The lower strand beads are 17mm x 12mm. This photo doesn't show the tremendous variation in marking & color. Ocean jasper top drill beads, 6 larger beads for $10.99.

Next, here are some oval pieces of ocean jasper with drusy--sparkly crystals growing right out of the bead! The crystals match the color of the back of the bead which is polished and has typical dots, stripes, waves, etc. The beads are like tiny geodes. A one of a kind item. About 15mm x 12mm x 8mm thick. The photo doesn't really show the depth and unique appearance of these beads, and of course you need to hold them to enjoy the smooth/rough texture. OLD PRICE 4 FOR $19.99 NEW PRICE 4 FOR $12.99

Gaspeite, Rose Quartz, Czech Glass

Above, this lovely design created with rose quartz almond cloud pink Czech bead and gaspeite accents is spring personified!

Most Unusual and Beautiful Carving

This wonderful work of art was carved from a single piece of mammoth ivory. It is about 2 inches long and extremely carefully detailed. A one of a kind marvel! The horse is a symbol of success and loyalty representing speed, courage, and endurance. Mammoth ivory hand with horse, sold.

JUST IN Large Carved Gem Leaves Pendants

I am obsessed with making jewelry with leaves. These beautiful carved leaves will look so cool with smaller gem beads & pearls. I got some coin pearls & keshe pearls that would go great with these. Oh, and the faceted beryl in pastel "forest" tints would be great with the green leaf! Both colors are jasper, and the veining and details are super. Size, width, is one to 1.5 inches. Carved leaf pendants, $4.99 each or 3 for $11.99.
