Like gum drops, gem drops are a sweet, compressed package of beautiful color and fun. Unlike gum drops, gem drops will not lead to unwanted pounds or tooth decay! The idea is simple: pair two complementary gemstones for a striking sample of natural goodness. The gemstone pendants make a fun addition to most outfits for work or play so enjoy some gem drops today!

This gem drop features two similar but different quartz: tiger eye that has been heated to achieve the rich brick red coloring and brecciated jasper. Tiger eye gets its chatoyancy (luminous banding) from the alignment of asbestos that are replaced by silica. Brecciated jasper has the appearance of fragmented rock, much like conglomerates in breccia clastic rock. The pendant hangs from a fluid 18" 14kt gold-fill 1mm box chain necklace.

Cost: $47.00 USD
