Jade and Sapphire Water Sprite

I'm making a patchwork chain for this jade and sapphire water sprite pendant. It will be made of different kinds of chain (some of them antique), semi-precious and antique beads and sea weed links in sterling. I'll put up a photo of it when it's done.




Size is about 2.5 inches. It's sterling with a stunning Burmese jade cut by Lloyd Eshbach and a _very_ dark blue sapphire. The silver seaweed links are going to look beautiful with it. I mostly don't show this big but I wanted folks to see the detail. From the collection of Bayla Fine.

I think I'm finally able to polish so there should be more new work up pretty soon.
