A glass bead is set in sterling silver and the back is left open to let light through. Many times people ask about leaving the back open in gemstone jewellery. I usually do this when it enhances the quality of light passing through. Skin contact with a stone is preferred by many people who are interested in the healing aspect of gemstones.

The double terminated ferrous quartz ring was a happy challenge. It was so tiny (1.5 cm x .5 cm) I could barely hold it. The stone comes from Spain, and it’s red color from iron in the quartz.
