Ammolite and Peridot Enhancer, Necklace, and Brooch

This piece is ever changing! It started out as a cuff bangle bracelet. Unfortunately, I made the cuff too small and it didn't fit anyone. So, I reworked it into a brooch because I'm such a big fan of brooches. I like to wear them on hats.  Also, I have created a unique vertical converter that allows it to be worn as a necklace with the included double strand beads, an enhancer with anything you may already have, or worn alone as a brooch. What wonderful versatility! The stones are lovely and huge. There is a fancy cut peridot and an equally intense teal with green boarder ammolite (fossilized opal).

Ammolite is opalized ammonite fossil from Southern Alberta, Canada. It is millions of years old but was only discovered in the early 1980s. This ammolite has superior flash! The design is a one of a kind. It is hand formed and fabricated. It took days just to make the converter! The beads are a single strand of large facetted peridot roundels at the bottom that unexpectedly splits into double strands of small neon blue apatite segments in between regular longer intervals of facetted peridot segments. The clasp is a unique partly handmade clasp with a commercial lobster claw on the end for safety. It is pretty enough to be worn alone.

Music

This is one of those spontaneous pieces that came together without being designed first. Feeling creative, I just grabbed the gold and stones and this is what materialized. Speaking of materials, this necklace does not skimp! It has a beautiful lavender pinky purple and tan (35mm x 17mm) bezel set boulder opal with purple, blue and teal flash. It also has a 12mm x 10mm prong set emerald cut light color ametrine.

What is ametrine, you ask? Well, the stone amethyst and the stone citrine are both in the quartz family. In fact, I believe citrine is amethyst that has been naturally heated by the earth‘s radiation. Therefore, amethyst and citrine grow together. A skilled stone cutter has the opportunity to create a unique bicolor natural stone called Ametrine by faceting the color break in the crystal.

The bezel is 22k gold and all of the other metalwork is 14k. It is a one of a kind formed and fabricated pendant on a double strand necklace. The pendant's overall size is 2” x 1.25”. It is strung with two tones of rhodolite garnets, 14k gold beads and teeny tiny seed pearl accents. The garnet beads toward the pendant are a beautiful sparkly deep wine color and the garnets toward the clasp are sparkly, soft lavender-rose color. They suit the boulder opal PERFECTLY! This piece is gorgeous! It is 14k gold and is strung with a bulls eye clasp to approximately 19 ½ inches on a durable synthetic fiber that moves like silk but doesn't stretch, shred or fray like silk.

$6,500.

 

 

Unusual Asymmetrical Smile Design

Ammolite is opalized ammonite fossil from Southern Alberta, Canada. It is millions of years old but wasn’t discovered until the early 1980s. This extremely high end piece of ammolite has the hardest to find colors of ammolite opal. The color is deep and royal PURPLE. It also has the second and third rarest colors of ammolite which are indigo blue and teal, respectively.

The Ammolite is a whopping 27mm x 23mm long and is bezel set in 22k and 14k gold! Due to the unusual trapezoidal shape, I felt the ammolite needed something to visually balance out the lower corner and I chose a lavender pink freshwater cultured pearl. The pearl addition balanced the piece, but it still needed a little something…hence the facetted sapphire bezel set into the pearl. The smile bar is 14k gold. This necklace is strung to 18” on a durable synthetic string that moves like silk but won't shred, stretch, or fray like silk. It has a signed hangtag and a 14k lobster claw clasp. The stringing on this necklace is unique because the 18k bar makes the pink pearls become part of the pendant in the way they drop down with the pendant. The effect of this also gives the pendant added movement. A lot of jewelry is just ornament. I consider this special piece to be true art in precious materials. The facetted beads that compliment the rare blue in this ammolite are kyanite in the finest quality! It is strung with a 14k lobster claw clasp to about 17 inches in length (that is from the gold bar to the clasp.) The string is a durable synthetic fiber that moves like silk but doesn't stretch, shred or fray like silk.

Opal Goddess.

A trio of opals in ocean colors comprise this 22K and 14K gold pendant. The center opal is technically a black opal, because it has the presence of manganese. The other two are boulder opals (opals still in the ironstone host rock in which it naturally grows). My initial thought on this piece was to make a series called “Trail Markers.” It morphed into a goddess instead. To accentuate the ocean colors in the pendant, I have strung emeralds which blend into aquamarines. This piece measures 19.75” long and has a lobster claw clasp.

A trio of opals in earthy colors comprise this 22K and 14K gold pendant. These are boulder opals (opals still in the ironstone host rock in which it naturally grows) with intense teal, green, blue flash that doesn’t show well in the photo. My initial thought on this piece was to make a series called “Trail Markers.” It morphed into a goddess instead. To accentuate the earthy colors in the pendant, I have strung emeralds, tanzanite, blue and cinnamon zircons. This piece measures 19.75” long and has a lobster claw clasp.
