Days End 156by *Zorias

Artisan Crafts / Jewelry / Necklaces & Pendants

Piece # 156 "Days End"
A Zoria's Creation. Krista DeSelms ©2011

Soooo have you guys seen this piece before? I could swear I posted it but was looking for it in my gallery and could not find it anywhere.. weird. Anyway I love this piece, the flash in the labradorite is just amazing.

Labradorite wrapped in round Gold-Filled wire.

Labradorite is a feldspar mineral which occurs in large crystal masses in anorthosite rock and shows a beautiful array of colors. These colors are shown in a chatoyant way, an optical phenomenon in which the hue of the stone changes color or flash according to the angle from which the surface is viewed. Labradorite comes in all sorts of shades and colors; most common are blues, greens, golds, and oranges.

Gold-Filled Wire is not the same as Gold Plated. Gold Filled is an actual layer of gold, pressure bonded to a bass metal. Gold Filled have over 100% more gold than Gold Platting does. Gold Filled is much more valuable and tarnish resistant than plated. Anyone who can wear Gold can wear Gold Filled without worries of allergic reactions to the jewelry.

In the notation 14/20 the 14 refers to the gold being 14k and the 20 refers to the law that to be labeled "Gold Filled" the weight of the wire has to be 1/20th gold.

Yes, I do custom work.
