Silver and Turquoise Instasale

48 W Turquoise

It’s a real bummer when someone loves a stone in a ring but the ring isn’t their size.  These American Turquoise cabs were cut for my spring shows but I wanted to give people the chance to have a custom piece made for them.  Until they are claimed you are welcome to message me at hello@azoho.com and we’ll talk custom order.  🙂

The New Year | Welcome 2015

I love the new year.  Fresh.  Full of possibility.  It’s no secret that I love rocks.  And I’m in a happy place standing or sitting in front of my grinder.  Led Zeppelin playing.  So I just keep cabbing and cabbing.  And I love making jewelry.  My conundrum is that I am making cabs faster than I can set them.  I have a lot.  And one of my vices is buying rocks.  LOL.  I posed the question on FB and IG asking if I should list some for sale and was pleasantly surprised and humbled by the response.  So listing it is.  🙂 If I can figure out the best way to handle shipping on here I’ll list them on my site.  Otherwise I’ll just list them on my Azoho FB page.  And there are groups that I belong to on FB that have auctions a few days each week.  I’ll get this sorted out and it put a smile on my face.

This Necklace

209wtext

I love this necklace.  Hand built start to finish.  The stone is howlite.  I cut the stone from a little chunk of rock that I have.  The grey veining in the stone is really set off by the oxidized sterling.  When the stone was shaped and polished I made a simple setting with an ornate bezel.  I know it sounds like an oxymoron.  I like juxtaposition. Head on it’s simple.  The ornamentation is on the side.  Hangs on a silver necklace although a part of me always wants it hanging from leather.

Howlite is said to be a stone of awareness with a calming energy.  Used to heighten creativity and expand self expression.  This necklace and all of it’s good energy is available here.
