Druzy Pendant Necklace, Fire Agate Red Garnet Earthy Handmade Jewelry


sparkling druzy pendant jewelry fire agate red garnet

The EARTH SONG handmade necklace features a glittering druzy pendant, faceted brown fire agate and red garnet - unique gemstone jewelry for women.

Even though the photos don’t show it, the one of a kind EARTH SONG handmade necklace is filled to the brim with eye-catching sparkle, something surely to sing about. The earthy necklace features an exquisitely glittering druzy agate pendant. Faceted brown fire agate, red garnet and sterling silver complement the druzy pendant perfectly. What is druzy? Druzy (or druse) refers to a coating of fine crystals over the surface of a rock cavity, usually within a geode or something similar. The druzy agate gemstone pendant is teardrop shaped and has a cavity running up the right side. The face of the pendant is absolutely covered in breathtaking, off-white crystals, looking as if someone sprinkled a thick layer of fine sugar crystals on it. And do the crystals sparkle and sparkle and then sparkle some more, shifting as the angle of light changes. The back of the pendant is smooth with the lovely natural pattern of the agate mother rock.  Adding glamor to the design and highlighting the pendant perfectly are faceted fire agate rounds and red garnet heishe along with sterling silver. A type of banded chalcedony that is famous for its intricate patterns, the colors of the fire agate range from black to root beer brown to pale beige.  Many of the stones are translucent and seem to capture the light.  In between each grouping of agates are three hand cut red garnet heishe. They are separated from the agate by small sterling beads.  Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the EARTH SONG gemstone necklace was created for the woman who is amazed at the unexpected treasures that can be found in the Earth and who adores wearing one of a kind, artisan jewelry.

Carved Jade Moth Necklace, Fire Agate Gemstone Handmade Jewelry Gift


jade moth pendant necklace gift for women



Since the moth is considered a symbol of determination as it constantly tries to find light in any darkness, I just had to name this exquisite necklace DETERMINATION! A perfect gift for the woman who loves to wear bold jewelry, the unique necklace features a large, two sided jade moth pendant, spotted fire agate gemstones and white bone discs. The beautiful cut out moth pendant was delicately hand carved on both sides from jade - just look at the detail of the moth’s body, wings and the intricate detailing around the cut out areas! Since the pendant was hand carved, you can see that the right and left side of the pendant is not quite a mirror image, very similar but not exact. The jade pendant is a subtle creamy yellowish color ranging from very pale to darker with a hint of light rusty orange in places and speckles of black here and there. Because the pendant is two sided, you can decide which is your favorite side and wear it facing out. An eye catching lead free pewter bail with sacred spiral designs and a small dome at the top connects the pendant to the main body of the one of a kind necklace.

To perfectly complement the colors of the pendant, speckled fire agate and small bones discs were used. The speckled fire agate ranges in color from a rich root beer brown to almost black, each bead having various amounts of white dots and splotches. Some of the gemstones are translucent and seem to glow in good light; some of the agate is more opaque. Because the fire agate is faceted, the necklace catches the light and sparkles with every move. To play up the speckles and to give the necklace a sinuous feel, small white bone discs and sterling silver beads can be found between each piece of agate. The first seven at the front of the necklace ae separated by a single disc while the stones at the back are separated by three discs. A gorgeous sterling silver hammered hook clasp set finishes the necklace perfectly. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the DETERMINATION moth pendant necklace was created for the woman who adores wear meaning meaningful artisan jewelry.
