This wonderful Marfa Plume Agate deserved a simple setting in order to really focus the eye on its beauty. The stone is clear, with black mossy plumes - and what makes this one especially lovely is the little orange splace towards the top. It made me think of winger brush with a rising sun. The stone is set in fine and sterling silver, and features a textured silver circle on top that holds the two silver hanger rings. The silver behind the stone gives it a lovely glow when the light shines on it.
SIZE: The pendant is just under 2 inches long and 1 inch wide at its widest.
MATERIALS: Marfa Plume Agate (from Texas), Sterling silver, Fine silver
