A Septarian Nodule is a Concretion comprised of sedimentary rock with the inner porous areas filled in with minerals. I bought my first Septarian Nodule in a rock shop in Moab, Utah, but didn't realize they could also be made into jewelry! Because of the porous crystal-filled cavities, they work best as large pendants like these (2.1") but not so well as beads. Since most of the crystals in Septarian Nodules are made of Calcite and Aragonite, I have used beads made with them. The light yellow tube beads are Aragonite and the large dark yellow round beads are Calcite. The brown beads are Jasper, which have a very earthy quality like the "mud" matrix of the nodule. The necklace is 23½" long, and the matching bracelet is 7.6". Please Read: All chains, wire, findings, settings and silver beads are solid .925 sterling silver, NOT silver plated. Size of pendants include setting and bail; size of necklaces and bracelets are approximate and include clasp length. Please note that bracelets tend to be on the small side for smaller wrists as it is easier to add links to adapt to a larger wrist than it is to remove beads to fit a smaller wrist. You can have a local jeweler add links to extend the toggle clasp, however this is not a service that we provide.

About my jewelry creations:
All items are created using genuine semi-precious stones, with .925 sterling silver findings, settings, wire and beads. Each item is one-of-a-kind; I never replicate my work. I strive for unique color combinations with graceful rhythms of the beads. Stones have held a fascination for me since I was very young, and I feel natural stone jewelry, with all the stone's flaws and inclusions, hold much more warmth and humanity than something that is supposedly "perfect". Each pendant, each little bead, is like a miniature abstract painting created by the most incredible artist of all, Nature. I just curate them for a little wearable exhibit. :)
