I've had these moss agate cabochons for years, no exaggeration. I would pick them up, admire them, and be undecided about how to use them. With gemstones that I really admire, (and especially if they're more expensive), I always have a little fear about making something with them. What if I can't make something that does them justice, that lets the stone shine? What if I break them or ruin them?
With moss agate, I really love to leave the front and back of the stone uncovered, because the beauty of the stone really shows when light can pass through it. (Which, yeah, I'm not showing you very well in these pics, I know.) Electroforming just that thin little sliver of copper all around the stone allows the stone to be the focal point, and pairing them with the little hawthorns adds a natural elegance, I think.
These will be available to purchase August 7th!
