Certain colours of stones being either 'cold' or 'warm' can take on a totally different appearance when combined with a different colour metal. Gold would be lovely indeed, but electroplating with a 22k gold solution works just as well!
This is a beautiful string of faceted natural Amazonite. It is a beauty stone that has so many different colours in it, from Duck Egg blue, to pale caramel and even dark Tudor oak colour brown. This string could do both; either silver or silver gilt!
Thank-you for all your lovely comments. I'm so glad you've enjoyed the process of creating the cylinder. It's hard work and at times I feet like flagging, especially with all the curry stresses we are all enduring; but sharing my efforts has helped me complete my work and makes it all feel worthwhile.
Thank-you all again,
Best Wishes to all & stay safe and KBO, as Churchill said "keep buggering on"

Hey this is staggeringly beautiful Poppy_the_cat so what an achievement as we've watched this from start to finish. You stay sage and well and your talents are astounding. 😊
Thank-you Jerry, it's very cheering that you've enjoyed watching the lengthy process! I'm sorry I posted it in the wrong section, does that mean that it will not be seen by the folk in the Wellbeing section?
Would you like to cut and paste the link for the posting(s) or do a new posting for PWB? Either choice is fine. You can also add the Arts and Crafts Topic for the postings on here.
Thank-you for your advice! Much appreciated. Will tackle it tomorrow.Thank-you kindly
Poppy 😁
You’re welcome! I can add the Arts and Crafts topic for you on this posting tonight.😀👍🌈
Thank-you, but now thinking about it I had actually originally intended it primarily as an example of creativity as a tool to aid the positive well being of the psyche; rather than an art or craft?🤔
It can be for both. 😀👍🌈
