This is made from an Ammolite rough (glued to the original info card from the mine shop) that a lady brought in for me. It had been given to her some 20+ years ago when purchasing a costly gold set Ammolite.
Unfortunately the stone was very irregular and uneven but thankfully I have a trusty grinding machine! :)
My client wanted it made into a pendant for bequeathing to a lovely relative (who'd long admired the little stone) so a lot of stone shaping and griding later I was able to set it.
The hammered setting was chosen to enhance the textured nature of the stone...
A few weeks later she collected her new necklace and it suited her beautifully...YAY!

Another lovely piece, Nic! The setting is perfect for the stone!
Thanks Molli :)
Stunning! I love the way the grain (not sure if that is the right word) of the stone matches the setting..I bet she loved it!
