Ruby in Zoisite Part Deux

Wonderful customer Ms. C is looking for something special, so here's a fun layout of my splashiest ruby in zoisite faceted teardrop briolette pairs (and two FAB surprises at the end!). This is purely for visual feasting; all stones are about the same size. The first four have larger holes and can be wrapped in the same style as the Mistress Antonia earrings in my shop (www.suzyrocksdesigns.etsy.com), with double Celtic swirls. The next two would need to be wrapped in my Wild Celtic Abandon style, a sort of "messy" wrap that allows me to wrap barely the tips and let the stones shine on their own (the first four could be wrapped this way also).

The last two stones ... well, I'll talk about them when we come to them!

Celtic Swirl or Wild Abandon Wrap:

Yum! A little darker green, great ruby inclusions, interesting pale streaks.

Different! Ruby speckles and a very unusual blue cast on these beauties.

Yikes! One big fat ruby chunk; the other stone has a ruby chunk on its side, is a little more quiet. Beautiful base color!

Ruby specks, white zones; the second stone has lots of color on the base.

Wild Abandon Wrap Only:

Gorgeous! Plenty of gold, good ruby, and interesting dark zoisite inclusions surrounded by white.

This was a fuzzy photo, but still gets the point across: These are quite adorable, with their ruby along the base of the teardrop.

Pendant Beads (Hold Onto Your Heart!!)

For a very special necklace - can't wait to make this up! Wonderful markings, mystical swirls, outrageous ruby, too cool.

Yowzah! The photo doesn't begin to do this gorgeous stone justice. Chock full of ruby, there is even some translucency in the ruby zones, making this a remarkable find for a pendant (pricey...) (but worth it...).
