Thunder Metal Mix
Thunder Metal Mix
This Central Oregon Thunder Egg sports cherry red agate, or Carnelian, that flows like ombre’ to light warm shades of yellow and white. An Island of Rhyolite in the upper left hand corner reminds of how this sweet treat was created inside a hard rock bubble. Like the lava that made it, Fine Silver and Copper flow below, combined by heat and hammer, until they are almost a seamless soup of metal. Fine Silver bubbles embellish the scene that is left open backed so you can see through the gem.
The stone was sourced in Oregon, hand polished, and the setting 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.
