I took a stunning cab of Sci Fi jasper ( also known as Porcelain or Exoctia jasper), in lovely and subtle shades of lavender greys and white, and wrapped it with sterling silver jewelers wire. I gave it my own exoctic twist of a finish to help it live up to it's name.

The pendant has a large, elongated 12mm bail opening, so you can use it on almost any slide or chain. It measures 69mm x 23mm.

Exotica Jasper, also called Sci Fi Jasper or Porcelain Jasper, feels to me like a cool milkshake on a hot day, it's so soothing. There's nothing bland about its energy, though. In addition to the general properties of all jaspers, It has a subtle and deep energy that seem to nuture one on a soul level. This is a stone I would choose to use for protection and nurturing during soul retrievals, healing of traumas or other deep emotional wounds, and the like, both for the healer or the healee.

This is a big bead, with the 16ga Sterling wire, it weighs in at 2.1 ounce. It is about 64mm tall with the bail ( 2 1/2"), and 23mm wide in the front and 30mm on the side.

I have suspended it from a 20 inch 2mm Sterling silver snake chain, I also have 24" & 28" snake chains, that I can exchange it for, but they are 1.2mm thick! If you don't need a chain, I can deduct $10. contact me before purchasing.

I believe the stone is Dalmatian or Sesame jasper, but don't hold me to it.

This is a big and bold piece, and I added a hand hammered swirl to the bail .

These are so cute, they are just shy of 1" long and are mounted on 14kt Goldfilled 4mm posts. The light Amethyst round teardrops/briolettes, will go very well with my " Royal Baby " necklace.
