Natural Turquoise Wheel with Jet

Description

My series of Turquoise Wheel pendants is inspired by the remarkable stone I am lucky enough to have happened upon. The Turquoise is natural and organically and irregularly cut into this wheel shape. You can read more about it here if you'd like:

This particular pendant is a paring of two wheels and Jet. The stone at the bottom is 22 x 8mm and appears to have a jet-black base with mottled green/blue Turquoise throughout. It is slightly and brightly accented with splashes of yellow/orange/ochre...I can't begin to imagine the geological nature of that element in the stone. The top element is a 13 x 3mm black and blue/green mottled Turquoise disc topped by an irregularly tumbled Jet stone. The pendant is 43mm in length.  

The piece is wrapped in Sterling Silver and hangs from 3 strands of waxed cotton cord that is a total of 26" in length when fully extended and is adjustable.
