Released this past Sunday, the latest collection of Lumenrose turquoise candy is filled with top notch stones. Here are some of the favorites. Many have sold already (thank you!), but they deserve a permanent place on the blog because these stones are just true stunners. Many are still available and I've linked them in case you want to know more.

Let's start with this trio of pendants. Each of these high grade stones is wrapped in a 14k gold bezel with a thick 14k bail that I reclaimed and milled from salvaged gold. This is the first time I've incorporated metal that I've reclaimed myself into my work. I plan to do it a lot more.

Saddle bands rings - the first time I've made this style - with angular cuts of top quality Royston. These hug your finger and make a statement while still being easy to wear.

The most fancy stone I've ever purchased: a nice, juicy rectangle of Royston, cut by a friend and fellow silversmith. This stone has sat in my collection for nearly 8 years waiting for the perfect project. Here she is, made into a bolo tie fit for any gender, meant for anything from casual wear to wedding wear and in between. I'm so excited to see how this will be styled by it's future owner - make sure to send me a pic if that is you! See the listing here.
