One of My Favorite Pieces


Malachite Necklace
I designed this piece to donate for a silent auction fundraiser to benefit the Sacramento Rotary Club Breakfast for their yearly event Fiesta del Mayo.  The center pendant is an opaque gemstone call Malachite.  Malachite is found where copper is mined.  It is a green color with variations of greens running through it.  The "40mm donut" pendant is attached to the necklace by teardrop seed beads.  The necklace is made of malachite rectangle beads, gold pearls and seed beads.  The accent metal circle on the side matches the clasp.
