I love plume agates, and this Regency Rose plume agate is a wonderful example of why. The agate has a soft transparent cream color; embedded in it are plumes of white, beige and orange brown. It looks so much like an underwater coral scene, that I had to add a few fish and a bit more coral on top. The back is sterling silver, the bezel and hammered coral are fine silver and the fish are copper. The back has been darkened so the polished bezel, coral and fish - and of course the beautiful stone - will stand out. The bail is hand cut and riveted. This pendant is sold without a chain. I offer a variety of chains and cords which can be purchased separately.
Lapidary work on this lovely stone is by Clint Gardner of Stoneviews.
