Just completed this morning, #21623.1, a nickel on copper rectangular necklace measuring 24mm x 9mm. It has a hot forged textured surface with a dark lustrous oxidized finish. The stone is a 5mm rainbow quartz weighing about .70 cts. Rainbow quartz isn’t a completely natural stone… quartz is naturally colorless. The colors come from vacuum deposition layers of niobium and titanium.
This one is a first for me as it features a fully fabricated silver tube setting, as opposed to the settings I normally use, which come pre-fabricated and ready to set. It’s definitely more work, but this way I can adjust the height of the setting to better fit the piece. Available with a chain for $60, or without a chain for $45.(sold)
