Finishing Up

Another beautiful Spring day. Started off rather on the cool side @31 degrees early this morning!
  I finished up the rest of the new work I had been working on. Still would like to finish up a hand made metal bead necklace tomorrow given enough time.

Pretty "gemmy" Rosy pink Rhodocrosite designer free form cut cabochon with a trillion shape facet cut pink tourmaline. Hand fabricated in Sterling 9.25 with accents of 14k Gold balls. 16ga. round silver wire is hand forged with a forging hammer to form top accents. Bail is located behind center curl.
size: approx. 2 1/2 in. x 1 1/4 in.
$245.

These earrings are hand fabricated in Sterling 9.25 and 14k yellow Gold. 14/20 G.F. hand made ear wires. At the top are a matched pair of 5mm trillion shape faceted Apatite and below a pair of 11 x 9 designer triangle shape Aqua blue quarts druzi.
size: approx. 1 1/4 in. long x 1/2 in. wide
$325.

Jerry finished this pendant today. Hand carved designer cut cab of Covolite, by Rock Raven Lapidary with 10 x 8 Emerald cut facet of London Blue Topaz.

size: 2 1/2 in. long x 1 1/4 in. wide
$420.

Whale pin: One of a kindBelieve it or not, this is a baroque fresh water pearl! Very unusal shape and texture. When I spyed this pearl, I immediately saw a humpback whale. It is made in 9.30 Argentium Sterling, with a pin at the back. I added a 2mm round facet tanzinite blue diamond. Approx. size: 3 in. long x 1in. wide $335.

Another one of Jerry's today...we decided to make this piece into an optional pin. So, he has added a "tail" and a pin to the back. Hand fabricated in 9.25 Sterling. The georgeous bead in the center is a "reptilian" lamp worked bead by Patty Lakinsmith Plays' With Fire studio. Approx. size: 3 1/4 in. long x 3 1/4 wide at the widest point of legs $265.

That's all for tonight. Have a nice evening....Fran
