This pendant features an unusual Ocean Jasper cabochon. It has a wonderful golden brown color, and includes internal pockets of crystals that glitter as the pendant moves. It is in a simple sterling silver pendant, and dangles freely from a sterling disc with a faceted 5mm Peridot in the center. The disc is textured. A stylized leaf has been cut out behind the stone. This is the perfect gift for someone who was born in August; Peridot is August's birthstone, and the colors are reminiscent of late summer.
Lapidary work is by Juvy Andres of J.C.Cabochons.
SIZE: The pendant measures about 2 3/4 inches long and 3/4 inch wide. This pendant is sold without a chain. I offer a variety of chains and cords which can be purchased separately. It is pictured here with a sterling silver wheat chain.
MATERIALS: Sterling silver, Fine silver bezel, Ocean Jasper, Peridot
PROPERTIES OF STONES (information compiled from numerous sources): Jasper is considered the "supreme nurturer." It is said to bring tranquility and wholeness, especially in times of stress as well as provide courage and stimulate the imagination. Peridot is said to be a stone of lightness that can help someone who is going through depression. It is supposed to balance the process of emotional release and foster emotional balance, security and inner peace. Peridot is August's birthstone.
