Carnelian Fire on Druzy Mountain
Carnelian Fire on Druzy Mountain
Carnelian crazed and carved is a great blend! This Carnelian Plume Agate goes from flames of deep red, with Marcasite, to white within its carved undulations. The Druzy Plume Agate peaks below pick up the warm hues in delicate details with the shimmers of Quartz Druzy Crystals. This scene is flanked by Angel Wing Plume Agate, Carnelian, and Pink Chalcedony all set in Fine Silver. The body of the piece is a dynamic Sterling Silver prong setting with Fine Silver demi-bezel, truly unique!
The Marcasite Plume Agate and Druzy Plume Agate from Eastern Oregon were hand carved and polished by Karen Britt. They are left partially open backed to let the light illuminate them and give them a ‘floating glow’. The Angel Wing Plume Agate is from Eastern Oregon while the Pink Chalcedony and Carnelian are from the Virgin Valley, Nevada. They are all 5mm and are found and hand polished by Karen Britt.
The bezels are all Fine Silver and the body and prongs of the piece, as well as the loop and closure, are Sterling Silver. The pendant is hung from an 18 inch, black, 3.5mm Greek Leather cord. This piece was fabricated from scratch by Karen Britt. Each piece is a one of a kind piece of art, because no two stones are the same and the settings are created by hand, no two pieces are the same (even the earrings). It should be mentioned that all stones are used in their natural state; never dyed or heated to change their appearance. All the metals used are either recycled or fair, humane trade verified and all components used in the jewelry will return to the earth leaving no footprint. Thank you for enjoying the art.
