Primative Boho Statement Necklace

...Loamy Green Moss Agate Pinned with Gunmetal Chain

Natural Raw Moss Agate stones hand wrapped with gunmetal wire are linked in pairs by multiple strands of gunmetal chain. A gunmetal kilt pin fastens the necklace and can be positioned various ways.  Total Length: 20 ½ inches.

My personal favorite is to arrange the necklace so that the kilt pin sits along the collar bone giving, asymmetrically, fashionably primitive. Moss Agate is a variety of chalcedony with dark greenish mossy markings, used as a gemstone.


...soon to be listed in my online Etsy, Art Fire & Facebook Shops :)

New Listings just posted in my online shops!

This one is my favorite...

 
A series of medium clear frosty green free form translucent/transparent natural Fluorite stones have been hand wrapped by me using gunmetal wire and are tangled amongst 3 types and textures of gleaming nickel/silver gunmetal chain. A simple gunmetal lobster clasp secures the necklace to an extender chain charmed with a single delicate fern green B grade Aventurine teardrop. Total Length: 17¾ - 20in. (Adjustable)

Fluorite, also called fluorspar, adds a refreshing touch wherever it appears. Colors range from purple, violet, clear and green banded and/or combination's of color as the stone changes by mineral deposits and hot gasses that occur naturally where it is found. No matter which color you choose to wear, you'll feel relaxed and perked up at the same time as if you'd just stepped out of a cool shower. Its name comes from the Latin word "fleure" 
which means "to flow".

Cobalt Blue Geode Slice Pendant Tiered Silver Chain Necklace

A delicate translucent sky blue geode slice has been suspended from dual lengths of bright silver plated cross link chain. A silver plated swiveling lobster clasp secures the necklace to a hand wrapped brilliant blue “cat eye” beaded extender chain.
Total Length: 16 ½ – 17 ½ inches (Adjustable)
