Along with about 50 other stones, Chrysocolla is one of my favorites. So many shades of blues, greens, browns, and rusts, ….. It’s easy to get lost in the colors’ movements. During the polishing phase, while moving from wheel to wheel, I love watching the beauty of the stone slowly appear.
I’m a minimalist when it comes to wire-wrapping. For me, it’s all about the stone. For a bit of whimsy, I’ve added accents of faceted micro turquoise in the bird nest wrap. They remind me of little spinning blue planets. The touch of blue from the turquoise micro beads both complement and bring out the blues hiding in this lovely stone. Is it planet Earth? Is it the universe? I’ll leave that up to the new owner to decide.
