Sage and Cranberry

Love these colors! In fact, a good portion of my house is done in these colors! These yummy beads are called Rainbow Soocho Jade, but they are really a dyed serpentine. I generally use all natural beads, but I just love the new Antique and Rainbow Soocho "jades" that are available now, and real jade is soooo expensive! (and gorgeous, too). Anyway, this is a quick little bracelet and earring set done with rondelle shaped beads.

Antique Soochoo Jade - Yummy!!

This jade has got to be one of the most beautiful stones I have ever used in my jewelry. Each piece is a miniature abstract watercolor with muted tones of sagey greens, peach, olive, and gold. The pendant here reminds me of a sunset, and is my favorite of all the stones in my last purchase of this treasure. The necklace pairs the jade with the muted tones of rhyolite nuggets, and freshwater pearls. I really think this is my favorite necklace I have ever made!
