Drops of Avalon Mist

Drops of Avalon Mist is my latest series of 3 beautiful pendants . The inspiration comes from the majestic and magical landscape that surrounds our shop and home. A few months back I was given a brief by Making Jewellery Magazine to look into myths and legends. Living in the epicentre of myth and legend in the UK (Glastonbury) I did a piece based on the swirling mist of Avalon that surround the Tor.
This trilogy of pendants is an extension of that idea
Sterling silver / copper hybrid.
Cut Citrine cabochon
size - 6.8cm / 3cm

The citrine cabochon on the center of this pendant is a fabulous clear and beautifully cut example of such a wonderful stone. Citrine is known as the 'stone of success', it is said to promote success and abundance especially in business. Citrine is a happy stone and can bring happiness to who ever wears it. This particular Citrine is a natural stone, not heat treated and is wonderfully clear.
 
Botswana agate wrapped in copper
Size - 6cm / 2.8cm
 
In the centre of this pendant is a delicate tear dropped botswana agate. Also called the sunset stone as it retains sunlight and provides comfort. It has a stabilising and strengthening influence on those who wear it.
 
Chrysopraise wrapped in copper wire
size - 6.7cm / 3.1 cm

Nestling in the center of all the beautiful wire work is a fabulous strikingly green chrysoprase cabochon. A stone of the green ray, it promotes joy and happiness. Great to wear in a pendant as it will remain close to the heart chakra. Chrysoprase is a stone that enables the heart to heal. The combination of the beauty of the wire and the energy of the stone makes for a beautiful healing pairing.
