Gemstone Beads, Chips and Pendants

Gemstones and crystals have long been thought to have special powers. If you wish to find out about the affects of these stone, please check out Crystals-Gem Lore or I can recommend the book Healing with Gemstones and Crystals by Diane Stein (or other books see my links page).
I have always loved the feel of real gemstones in my jewelry, so I am offering some of the pieces which I have left over. Many of them had to be bought as full strings, so I am showing them as smaller groups for the most part. Please look over my offerings. I will be adding more items every week. Email me if you have any questions.
Just click on the picture for a larger view.

*Many more types of chips will be listed in the weeks ahead as I get time to scan them. I used chips in many of my creations for accents, but had to buy full strands even though I only needed a few.

Dolphin Pendants
If you love the sea, you will love these dolphins. At present I am offering 3 different stones; Rose Quartz, Florite and one I'm now sure what it is, except it's a nice black(obsidian?) with some green inclusions. Each is about 40mm long and 20mm tall. The thread hole is through the top fin.

Red Jasper Chips
Really nice size chips of red jasper. This stone is used quite often because of it's deep red color. Very good size and no sharp edges.
Sale Price 20/$1
Garnet Square Chips
I call these "square chips" because they are somewhere between a square bead and a chip. They are like beads since they are squared off , but are not of an equal size as you would expect a bead to be. They are all 5mm wide, the length varies a bit. Actually most beads are more rectangular, but I like the name square beads better.
Sale price 10/$1
Stone Heart Beads
These beautiful hearts are drilled top to bottom for stringing, wire or head pin. The Fancy Jasper, Black Obsidian and one Rose Quartz are 20mm wide. The other Rose Quartz and Snowflake Obsidian are 18mm. Any of them would make a nice accent or pendant.
