Eudalyte Pendant Necklace

This necklace is available on my Etsy here!

This gorgeous Cabochon was another purchase from the recent gem and mineral show where I spent entirely too much money. No regrets. I just loved how unique the grey and purple was. I hadn't seen any other stones quite like it. But I will admit I am not the most experienced when it comes to gems and stones. I only just got into this hobby in November and I never paid attention to these things before.

Eudalyte is a cool stone. It is silicate based, and whatever other minerals get stuck in it is what gives it that super cool patchy look. This stone is heavily tied to emotional needs. That is why it has the nickname "the stone of the heartland." Most stones are tied to meditation or spirituality in some way so it is kind of cool that this stone is focused on the heart, and emotional care instead.

I wish my grey beads had been just a shade darker, but other than that I think this piece came out perfectly. The transparent purple matched beautifully. I was also really excited cause I taught myself how to make a beaded bail for this piece which I hadn't really done before. I don't know that I will use that technique on every pendant moving forward but I am really excited to have another option!

I decided that this piece stood on its own and left it with a very simple bezel setting. Do you think that was the right call?
