This Ocean Jasper necklace is set on copper wire foundation that extends to make the bail.  A bead is strung on a crosswise soldered wire.  The large stretched oval chain links suit the large stone.

 

 

Description

What a gorgeous stone with its rusty, putty and pewter tones, best I can descrobe the colors.  They are very striking, though.  It is a fat stone, so using the prong method was best suited. With an elongated loop wire bail, I soldered on a cross piece of wire with a flat small, putty colored bead strung on it.  Two copper jump rings hold the chain with a large stretched oval and 3 small oval links alternated, closed by a copper lobster clasp, which is totally uneeded because of the length of 31 inches.  I thought this would be great on a long tunic shirt or blouse.  Ocean Jasper is said to help with personal growth and emotional healing.  But much else has been attributed to this beautiful stone: joy and optimism, patience and acceptance, emotional release, self-expression, stress relief, and physical support!  Wow!  A must wear stone!

Maker Information

Location Urbandale, Iowa

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!
