New Pendant Necklaces in my Shop

Some new pendant necklaces I posted to my shop, using similar white druzy (or sometimes spelled drusy) agates.  This stone is pure white like sugar or snow that glistens when light hits the different facets of the crystal points.  They are the insides of geodes.  I set them with prongs to let more light through the stones.  The sterling setting is oxdized to a pretty mottled black.  These pendants come with an adjustable black satin cord, 16 to 30 inches long.

Although the stones and the mountings are similar, I saw pierced the sterling backing with different designs.  

You can find these in my shop.

Sweet Hearts Pendant for Valentine's

I always have these designs in my head of what I want to make for Valentine's Day.  I must be getting better because I made ONE of the designs this year.  Such a procrastinator!  Well, here it is.  Thought the prong setting is more appropriate for this stone since it has uneven top.  This is a tall stone too so a solid silver bezel will cost quite a penny. 

Sweet Hearts Pendant


A secret heart on the back.


This white druzy (sometimes spelled drusy) agate has nice medium size crystals to catch the light.  Whichever way it turns, some of the crystal points would catch the light.  Lots of fun rubbing a finger across the top.  The back of the stone has a glass-like polish, so I made a "secret" heart cutout.  I put a mottled black patina on the silver setting to contrast with the white stone.  Comes with a black satin cord.

I made three other similar but different pendants and will post them real soon.  Stay tuned.
