Daily treat - Eternal flame necklace


"This design is striking & edgy & the stones are gorgeous together. This is one of my favorite designs...this time I've made it in cooler tones. I've titled this design "Eternal Flame" because it is symbolic of the fire that burns brightly inside of us during life's trials & tribulations.

This top piece of Labradorite ( 1 3/4" x just over 5/8" at widest) is absolutely stunning with it's bright fire & gorgeous colors! Under it I set a piece of Apatite rough ( straight from the earth- before it's faceted). This Apatite seems to glow from within. At the bottom I set an Opal ( 8mm x 5mm) that sparkles and has super bright multi colored fire. I've been saving this Opal for the right project. It has a single spot of bright red fire in it that makes it super unique...love it! All are bezel set in shiny 14kt gold fill to a hammered and shaped Bronze background. I have oxidized the metal to bring out the detail, creating a marbled pattern, and bringing out warm tones in the metal. Total length of piece is 4 1/4" and width is 1 1/8" at widest. Metal has been sealed to protect finish. Antique brass (pictured) adjustable length chain ( up to 23.5") included with purchase. It would also look good with an antique copper chain, same style, your choice. Thank you for looking!"
