Copper Ammonite Necklace, Spiral Unakite Peridot Coral Handmade Jewelry

The "Whispers of Time" handmade necklace features an artisan copper ammonite pendant, unakite, copal and peridot gemstones - unique jewelry for women.

Filled with amazing earthy elegance, the WHISPERS OF TIME handmade necklace is a perfect gift for the woman who loves to wear stylish artisan jewelry. The one of a kind necklace features an artisan created copper ammonite spiral pendant, unakite barrels, green peridot nuggets and pale pink coral drums. The gorgeous ammonite pendant was handcrafted from beginning to end from precious copper metal clay.  The solid copper pendant was patinated and polished to bring out the incredible detail. An actual ammonite, from 240 - 65 million years old, was used to make the mold for the pendant! As you can see in the photos, the ammonite gracefully ridged spirals.  A ridged bail at the top of the pendant attaches it to the main body of the necklace.  Three types of gemstones perfectly complement the pendant: unakite, peridot and coral. The colors of the barrel-shaped unakite are very earthy: mostly shades of mottled green with dark terracotta accents, although a few beads are mostly terracotta with a few sprinkles of green. To lighten the color of the design, pale pink coral drums are scattered throughout the necklace, capped by copper spacers and green peridot nuggets. The coral is faceted so provides subtle sparkle to the necklace. The green peridot are nugget-shaped so they are similar in size but not exactly. The peridot is also faceted for more glitter.  Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the unique WHISPERS OF TIME necklace is a perfect gift for the woman who loves fossils or just adores wearing one of a kind artisan designer jewelry.

The "Whispers of Time" necklace features an artisan handmade, pure copper ammonite pendant, molded from a real ammonite.

Ammonite Fossil Pendant Necklace, Riverstone Copper Handmade Jewelry

The "Earth Whispers" handmade necklace features a genuine ammonite fossil pendant, pale riverstone gemstone beads and copper - unique jewelry gift for women.

If only this fossil ammonite pendant could talk, what a story it could tell! The EARTH WHISPERS necklace is a wonderfully unique, one of a kind necklace featuring an ancient spiraling ammonite fossil pendant, pale riverstone rounds and copper. Ammonites, named by Pliny the Elder after the Egyptian ram-horned god called Ammon, lived in the oceans and seas between 240 - 65 million years ago, becoming extinct along with the dinosaurs. The genuine white and grey ammonite fossil shows up beautifully against the brown mother rock - the individual chambers and natural spiral design of the ammonite can clearly be seen. The ammonite is not exactly centered on the somewhat dome shaped pendant, it’s more to the left side, adding great interest. To perfectly highlight the ammonite fossil, pale riverstone gemstones rounds were used for the main body of the necklace. Riverstone is a sedimentary rock, a form of limestone formed from quartz, calcium carbonate and other materials. Riverstone is naturally an opaque creamy color and can have dark spots and swirls. The riverstone was placed in groups of three or five rounds with copper bicones and single stones separating some of the groups.  Perfect to wear with your casual clothes, it also will be a stunning piece of jewelry to wear with a little black dress. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the EARTH WHISPERS necklace will definitely set you apart from the normal, run of the mill jewelry-wearing crowd!

The spiraling ammonite pendant is perfectly complemented by pale riverstone gemstones.
