Morrisonite jasper pendant
« on: January 02, 2021, 06:06:59 PM »

The last pendant for 2020. Love this material and wish I still had some. This tiny piece was the last. Interestingly I read the stone has a relaxation/calming and healing effect on people. The first pendant I made of Morrisonite was given as a present to a young woman graduating from law school. She told me she felt relaxed when she wore the pendant so she kept it in her pocket during commencement to "chill".

This small piece is about 1 1/2" x 1" x 3/8" and is two pieces glued back to back. A first for me but necessary for the side drilling.

Happy new year folks !

You saved some of the best for last there. Those blue colors might have been my favorite in Morrisonite.

Beautiful pendant, Kent!

Morrisonite is one of my favorite stones and is so hard to come by now.
