Oregon Sunstone and moissanite ring set in 14k Rose Gold

Do you want to know the most common question I'm asked at live sales events? It's "What's that purple stuff?" This is Holley Blue Agate. The name is a little misleading because most of it is a lavender to almost grape jelly purple, the later being the most highly sought-after. Not only is it rare, but it's getting rarer every day because the place we used to mine it in Linn County Oregon has been closed to public digging since the 90's and there's no other source. This ring features a large 12ct piece of some of the juiciest purple agate you've ever seen. It's set in a sterling silver bezel, and wow, does it pop! I have quite a few pieces made with this stone, but this one is special.

Breathtaking rhodolite garnet set in 925 Sterling silver. This pendant has everything you'd want from a nice piece of jewelry. There is plenty of bling, gorgeous color, and a great price. 8x10mm stone weighs about 2.5ct, including a 20" silver chain for $100. The rough for this stone was a special purchase of mine from Madagascar, and I'm passing the great deal I got on the rough along to my customers.
