Natural Landscape - Tiger Iron - Pendant

In this listing, from my own lapidary shop, one fabulous thick Tiger Iron pendant, finished simply and crudely, but wrapped securely in 12 carat 20 gauge round gold wire.

Laid out nicely to show the natural landscape of the stone family of Tiger Eye and hematite. The pendant is completed with 2mm brown rubber strap and a vintage wooden button clasp, with a neck length of 16.5 inches.

The Tiger Iron weighs 100 grams, measures 3 1/8 inches wide, 2 1/4 inches tall and 5/8 inch thick. This isn't a wimpy stone. But hey! Your neck haul around tens pounds of head every day, what's another ounce or two?

"Tiger Iron can help one to become practical and of discrete mind, as well as more grounded. It can eliminate the “blues” and can bring brightness and optimism to the user. It also assists in providing insight to those issues which induce internal mental battles, delivering one from the “horns of dilemma” and the conflicts associated with willful pride. It further prompts the admiration for the pure and beautiful, allowing ones life, and ones passion for life, to open and to blossom.” Reference guide: Melody – Love Is In The Earth

The pendant will arrive in a handmade gift box, sent Parcel Post or First Class or if funds allow Priority Mail.

Amethyst Prairie Glass Bracelet

In this listing one handmade amethyst Idaho Prairie Glass bracelet.

The Prairie Glass is collected when I dig for rock. It resembles Sea Glass, in that it once was used by humans then discarded and recycled in the earth surface. The shards have been stabilized. All Crude Company bracelets are finished with a vintage button clasp and leather loop to allow you to simply button the bracelet securely to your wrist.

The bracelet has been linked together with 1mm tan leather cord, lamp work and vintage wooden disk beads....sweet fluffy vintage rabbit foot for luck and a MOP button clasp.

The measurement is 7 inches, and after wearing for a time the leather will give an average of 1/4".

The bracelet is guaranteed for life. I will repair and restring if the leather cord should wear or break....sometimes I can replace the stones if I have them on hand. Customer pays shipping both ways.

Bracelet will be shipped First Class in a handmade gift box from my ecovintageveagn shop.

Metropolitan Museum Journal Gift Box Set

Idaho Spencer Opal - Pendant

One hand worked, hand sandwiched and hand tripleted Spencer Idaho Fire Opal. The very last opal worked and sandwiched by hand under the teaching of Bob Stoubaugh, master opal lapidarian and seen often on "Exploring Idaho" PBS segments regarding collecting and working Idaho specimens.

This opal presents itself clearly with bounces of red, purple and blue flaming fire, across the entire sandwich. *Sandwich, meaning: a thin opal layer sandwiched by a clear quartz cabochon top and a ignumbrite or obsidian based flat bottom. Basically a "sandwich" of spectra color enhanced by other other natural gemstone bodies. Because the opal layer itself can often be paper thin it needs protection from other stones to not only enhance its beauty but protect it too.

“Opal amplifies your traits and characteristics. Helps you recognize and feel the creativity within the self, providing inspiration and imagination to all situations. It furthers clean, true, spontaneous action, enhancing what you are feeling and allowing for the release of inhibitions. Strengthens the memory and instills faithfulness and loyalty in love and personal relationships. It is a stone of happy dreams and changes. The happy dreams arising from the understanding of personal higher potentials and the glad acceptance of your inherent perfection. The happy changes come from those events which allow your aspirations to surface.” Reference guide: Melody – Love Is In The Earth

This opal measures2" long in a free-form style, wrapped in 20 gauge sterling silver and finished sweetly with 2mm tan leather cord, a vintage abalone shell button clasp and has a neck length of 15.5"....I can extend the length if needed for the etsy shopper.

The pendant will arrive in a hand made gift box, sent Priority Mail.

Vaginal Companion Pendant Pieces - Personal Ornament

A set of two companion pendants, mirroring and reflective of Va-Jay-Jay natural image and contour of the female anatomy.

It's rare to discover the human form, the human sexual organs in any rock formation. These natural agates reveal (for me) the natural splendor of the female vaginal opening. Honestly, not for everyone, but neither is my style or presentation of my rock.

These stones were discovered by my friend on her trip to Montana for a show, "goglassgirl" etsy shop features heirloom quality kaleidoscopes and vintage china bracelet's.

What she saw in these agates is truly what I tried to represent in the wire-wrap and completion of the shared companion pieces. The lighter of the agates - Angel Wing - completed in 2mm tan leather cord with an adjustable slip know closer, neck length 16" up to 22" and features three lamp work beads from the etsy shop of "skaramouche".

The second agate - Moss Agate, with a plume cavity, completed in 2mm black leather cord with an adjustable slip know closer, neck length 16" up to 22" and features three lamp work beads from the etsy shop of "skaramouche".

Each stone measures within an inch to an inch and a half in size.

The Vaginal Va-Jay's will arrive with two hand made recycled leather business card wallets.

Shipped Priority Mail in the U.S. only.
