Brand New Fire From Wings

Photo copyright Aji, 2015; all rights reserved.

So new, it's not even on our Web site yet.

This is the first of three in a Fire series: red, crimson, scarlet. Three necklaces featuring flaming rosarita in hand-made bezels, all on hand-strung beads in reds and blacks. This one is a brilliantly polished rosarita teardrop, bezel-set and trimmed in twisted silver, from which hang two small sterling silver spacer beads flanked by a pair of larger ones. Each bead is hand-stamped with a solitary hoop, and sacred hoops chase the length of the hand-made bail. The beads are hand-strung, alternating segments of graduated beads in natural jet and old natural branch coral, terminating at either end in a segment of tiny ivory-colored olivella-shell heishi. The pendant hangs 1-7/8" in length (including bail) by 7/8" across at the widest point (the silver beads at the bottom). The cabochon is 1-1/8" long by 5/8" across at the widest point. The strand of beads is just over 17.5" (all dimensions approximate). Close-up view of pendant shown below.

Sterling silver; rosarita (gold slag); branch coral; jet; olivella-shell heishi.
$1,600 + shipping, handling, and insurance.
