Krüsokolla Võõrasema. Krüsokolla on mu kivikarbis olnud juba mõne aja. Nüüd jõudis kätte tema aeg ning tema abiga valmis üks ripatsiga kaelakee. Loomulikult sobib krüsokolla kokku vasega - tema geneeski on ju vasemaardlate oksüdatsioon ;) Need helmed pole väga peened - pigem sellised muuhklikud ja karedad, sellised maalähedased.
Ripats üritab järgi aimata võõrasema kujutist. Kui seda on väga raske märgata, siis pole hullu :) Nagu juba tavaks saanud, olen ka siin vastandanud uue ja läikiva ning tuhmi ja antiikse välimusega vaskseid komponente.
Siin on krüsokollat kolmes suuruses: 4mm, 6mm ja 8mm. Lisaks erinevaid vaskseid vidinaid ning ketti. Krüsokollal on kohati hüpnotiseeriv toime - neilt leiab erinevaid mustrilahendusi, mõni meenutab isegi mallahiiti (tegelikult võibki seal seda olla kuna mõlemad kivid tekivad vasemaardlate osküdeerimisel). Mis tuletabki meelde, et mul mõned malahhiithelmed ootamas oma aega :D
I have had chrysocolla beads in my bead box for a month. Now its time has come and with its help I managed to make a necklace with a pendant. Ofcourse chrysocolla goes well with copper - it forms in the oxidation zones of copper ore bodies ;) These beads are not fancy - they're bumpy and rough, word earthly sounds right.
Pendant tries to picture a pansy but it's OK if you can't see it :) As it's become a custom I put the new and shiny copper into opposition to faded and antique-looking copper.
Here I have three sizes of chrysocolla: 4mm, 6mm and 8mm. Accompanied with different copper components and chain. Sometimes I get hypnotized by chrysocolla - it has so many patterns variations, some even resemble malachite (and it could have some malachite in it because both those stones form in the oxidation zones of copper). And that reminds me that I do have some malachite beads I havent yet used :D
