Nasarawa aquamarine


She looks like she has tiny ice crystals and snowflakes inside.Is it sapphire, tanzie, iolite, or spinel (watch, it will be something else now that I've named all of those like a geek).![]()
@Autumn in New England Yes, Mother Nature is amazing!
I have a new piece, but it’s none of the rainbow colours. It is black and silver.
Please allow me to share it while we wait for pink.
It’s not my usual item, but I love it. The beads are black onyx, clear quartz and haematite, and aptly named Sangfroid by its maker, Manik (https://manik.international/)
@Daisys and Diamonds I thought of you because you are good with beads.
@mellowyellowgirl I thought of you, because the beats are huge!! The necklace is much more affordable than what I usually buy. I hope it doesn’t become my equivalent of lLabubu…

Sapphire.
Geeks unite!
If there isn’t a taker for orange, please may I present my yellow - the tiniest yellow diamond set in a Tiffany Elsa Peretti band. I think it’s 0.01ct
It’s not visible by anyone other than me, and I love it! It’s the first time I’ve come across this band with a yellow diamond as they’re normally white diamonds.
I haven’t done a lot of research into yellows but from what I can tell, it’s hard to get a truly vibrant yellow, so I’ll happily wear this until I come across a knock-out yellow.

I especially love hematite! Did you know its "streak" is red (because it's an iron ore)? So if you ground it into a powder, it would also be red. Beautiful piece!!
I wanted to show you a beaded necklace I have that is somewhat similar. The beads are also black onyx, hematite, banded agate, howlite, and snowflake obsidian (along with sterling silver). It was rather inexpensive, but I love it. I feel like our necklaces could be sisters!
