Pink Rhodonite

Pink Rhodonite
In anticipation of the upcoming episode of Massachusetts state symbols, I have been working on more rhodonite pieces.

I was contacted last minute about being involved with the state gemstone segment so I had very little of the stone on hand to show. I maximized as best I could by pairing with other materials.

Black onyx really makes the stone pop!

Here it is paired with curly shells which compliment the pink beautifully. The remainder of the strand includes shell, white quartz and glass pearls.

It is gorgeous with natural pearls. But then again, what isn't? The bracelet sold within a couple of days of posting.

Of course I had to make a necklace too!

These girly earrings have a Swarovski crystal with an AB finish. The bottom bead is pale autumn jasper.

Turquoise is a fun, unexpected pairing with the stone.

  3. Hi Val,
    All you pieces are gorgeous! I love the Rhodonite with the black Onyx. I have a couple of small cab (I did not make them) and some 4mm round beads of Rhodonite, I love the color of this stone.

  4. Gorgeous! all of them!! you are right that the black onyx really sets off the color of the rhodonite ... I bet matte onyx would look stunning with these stones! I am in love with those curly shells .... I have some in my stash that I brought back from Mexico. I've been hoarding them, but I need to get those out and start thinking about warmer weather (it will arrive some day in the Northeast - we hope)
