Belle Rustique

This new pendant has the most beautiful pattern of swirls--unlike most of the malachite stones I've wrapped. It's actually a bead so I've added a swirled detail to accentuate the pattern AND hide the bead hole. I border wrapped it in 21 gauge sterling wire. Enjoy! Treat someone special to this one-of-a-kind gift or buy it for yourself. The pendant measures 2 1/4" from top of bail and is 1 1/8" wide.
Note: Malachite’s color is derived from copper, and it is usually found in opaque green masses. Its crystals are too fine for faceting; it’s generally polished and cut in cabochon form to show off the interesting banding. Malachite is found worldwide, however, Zaire is the major producer. It is considered a stone of transformation and balance.
Enjoy this unique piece of hand-crafted jewelry.
