Adobe Jasper and Citrine Necklace on Copper and Silver
$70.00
Beautiful green, yellow, black and brown oval stone set on copper with fine silver bezel. Citrine accent stone on lower right. Textured copper chain.
Description
A fine silver serrated bezel is soldered to the antiqued copper backplate to hold the lovely stone. A fine silver cup bezel holds a small Citrine accent stone, soldered onto the lower right side. The backplate is antiqued, but much was .1rubbed away to give depth, and more match the brighter copper chain. The 19 inch chain is a small square oval link with texture. A lobster clasp closes the necklace. Jasper is noted for being a grounding stone, and historically has been used for healing in emotional balance, bringing calm and stability. Ancient people often used Jasper in amulets and talismans.

Maker Information
After retiring from teaching, then owning an Inn and Gift Shop, I learned how to make jewelry, the metal smithing kind. I fell for the soldering, riveting, forming, cutting and finishing stones, you name it, I am still learning new skills. There is something about the transforming of sheet and wire metal into a lovely, unique backdrop for a special stone. Like, who doesn't like rocks, pretty ones?
My local Lapidary Club has a clubhouse where I can use specialized tools to finish stones. We also have a great Gem and Mineral Show with vendors all over the world, even Australia! You will see some of his Boulder Opals I love so much.
Life is good!
