Life’s a Beach Chrysoprase and Abalone Necklace

I was craving sun and warmth and ocean breezes so this necklace came about.  A big beautiful Chrysoprase stone surrounded by a natural Abalone and a silver seashell makes me feel like I'm in the Caribbean running through the warm water with my toes in the sand.  Bezel set in fine silver onto a heavily textured sterling silver backplate. Backside is stamped with my makers mark and sterling and etched to resemble sand lines caused by ocean tides. I sawed out a window to let the light shine through the Chrysoprase. Both the Abalone and the Chrysoprase shine brightly in the light. Measuring 3-1/4" long x 1-1/4" wide you will definitely make a statement with this unique beauty.  I added 5 Amazonite stones asymmetrically to the right side on the chain. Necklace is 18" with a Peruvian Blue Opal dangle, but I can add more rings to increase the length if required. Closes with my hook and eye clasp. All silver was given a dark patina and polished back to highlight the texture.  A great gift for anyone who loves the ocean.  All handcrafted by me with love from Oregon.
