A Friend's Fire Agate


A friend had this beautiful fire agate he wanted me to make into a pendant for his wife.  Just look at the color in that stone!


My palette is made up of Czech and Japanese seed beads in different shapes and sizes and colors ranging from amber to deep chocolate brown and lots of interesting copper bits .  


This is how it turned out.  I love the way the beads bring out the color in the stone.  I didn't want to detract from the stone, so I kept my design pretty simple.  I thought about doing a viking knit chain to hang this piece on, but my friend wanted simple, so I used a simple copper chain.


He really likes it - now we just have to hope his wife does!!
