Vineyards on the Old Mission Peninsula.
This sterling silver
pin/pendant is best
described in one
word- graceful.
The swirling
silverwork enfolds
an equally lovely
cabochon of golden
amber.  This piece
can be worn as
pictured, or upside
down to resemble
a flower as it
grows. Perfect for
a lapel!  Shown
actual size. $29.00
Our camera DEFINITELY didn't do
justice to the rainbow of sparkling
gemstones  highlighting this piece! 2
each of amethyst, garnet and
labradorite, and 3 of peridot surround
a lustrous freeform freshwater pearl
which hangs playfully  from the
center. Very happy and alive!
Shown actual size.
$47.00.


                                                     
Mother Nature selects certain rare
stones into which she places a layer of
sparkling microcrystals that create the
appearance of
moonlight reflecting off powdery, new
fallen
snow.  These difficult to find pieces are
known
as drusy agates, and the one shown
here is truly a prize! The hinged sterling
setting provides movement that
maximizes the reflective qualities of
both the drusy and the
lustrous freshwater pearl set between it
and the faceted teardrop-shape smoky
quartz.
Spectacular!  Shown actual size.
$54.00.
Please see description at left. Please also
be aware that, once again, our camera
fails in both pictures to come anywhere
near capturing the dazzle and play of light
which both of these drusy agates display.

$52.00.
The newest and most captivating trend in
pearl jewelry is the mabe (MAH-bay), or
"blister" pearl, so named because the
pearl forms while attached to the mother
(of pearl) shell. Because owning one of
these masterpieces of the organic
gemworld has typically meant making a
VERY sizeable investment, and finding a
mabe set in anything other than 14k or
18k gold has been impossible, this
affordable sterling pendant is truly a find!
The quality of the silverwork is
outstanding, and the soft colors reflected
off the shell/pearl surface must be seen to
be believed! Shown actual size.
$53.00.
Another outstanding offering in drusy
agate, this one in a beautiful piece of
blue agate paired with an equally
beautiful blue lace agate stone beneath.
The sterling bezel setting is hinged at
the bale and between the two stones to
maximize the movement of the piece for
optimal play of light. A real conversation
starter!  Shown actual size.
$63.00.
This flawless and perfectly polished blue
agate stone is the color of our bay on a
perfect summer afternoon.  Blue agate
stones of this quality and size don't come
along very often!  This very substantial
sterling pendant is pictured its' actual size
and is a true statement piece. Stone is
securely bezel set. Run your thumb or
finger over its' sleek surface and you will
find this piece to be as calming to the
touch as it is to look at!
$48.00.    
Two elegant sterling silver filigree crosses set with your choice of turquoise or denim lapis
stones.  The silverwork in these pieces is beautifully executed and very substantial in
terms of silver presence. Bails are large enough to accommodate most neckwires and
even the woven chains we tried in them.  These pendants take on different looks
depending on the color of the fabric against which they are placed because of the open
spaces in the filigree design.  A truly versatile addition to your jewelry wardrobe.  Shown
actual size.
