New Beads

I got some really beautiful stones at a local gem show on Friday. All are available for custom orders. :-)

5mm faceted peridot

8mm faceted Oregon sunstone

This one is a show stopper - I'm so in love.
9mm faceted Oregon sunstone

(another shot of that same gorgeous stone)

An interesting 7mm faceted color-change-ish Oregon sunstone... it looked blue in the display lights at the show; now in person it looks mostly green in real life, and in these photos it looks more neutral.

Some vintage sterling silver picks I found at an estate sale that same day. Not sure what I'll do with these, but I like 'em!

Variscite cabochon (love it!!!)

A pretty pale California tourmaline pendant bead

Another nice focal bead - holley chalcedony from Oregon
