Moonstone, Obsidian, Smokey Quartz Four Piece Set

by Barden
(Spencertown, NY)

I love the moonstones with the smokey quartz - I think they are a fetching match. And even better with the obsidian - especially these moonstones.

They've many neutral colors and silvery veins, and the obsidian with the cool sheen atop its pitch black, and that smokey quartz color - I call it brown-gray.

There is a lot of silver goin' on in this set - larger handmade (by ShelsJewelrySupplies) sterling silver hoop earwires, sterling silver twisted links, and sterling silver spiral links.

It's all sterling silver - jump rings to head pins to spacers to lobster claws - but it's the first mentioned aspects that are really SEEN.

The necklace in this set is two-tiered, so worn with the lariat it's three layers.

I love them all together. It's icy - very icy!

Beautiful stones and silver
by: Rena

Lovely stone combinations, wonderfully accented by all that silver.

I love the idea of combining the 2-strand necklace with the lariat for a 3-strand look! They look very nice together that way - and the black display shows them off well.

Thanks also for mentioning Shel's Jewelry Supplies by our friend Michelle Buettner who often shares her creations here!
