Year of Jewelry Project - Week 2 - Rose Quartz

 This Rose Quartz and Moss Jasper(which is part of the chalcedony family, green Hornblende that cause the pattern to resemble moss. Often used as a synonym for Moss Agate, though Moss Agate is translucent whereas Moss Jasper is opaque) necklace is probably my favorite so far this year. It is made with silver wire, glass, metal, and crystal beads to compliment the colors of the stones. 

These stones are not something that I use much, they both, the quartz and the jasper are both light colors that many people steer away from, especially the pink. I've found that many people prefer deeper colors, unless it is early Spring here. Maybe that isn't the case in other parts of the country, but out here, brighter, or deeper colors reign.
