Designer Jewelry Showcase Cover 2011

The 2011 Designer Jewelry Showcase publication is out and Vickie Riggs Designs is proud to be featured on the cover for her Mystic Moonstone Necklace.

Mystic Moonstone Necklace is a Sterling Silver pendant that includes a pear shaped moonstone at the top and an orange drusy with a tanzanite below. The sides are black zircon faceted beads with tourmaline briolettes. The chain of square cut moonstone beads clasps in front for complete beauty on the neck.

This piece started with a spectacular orange drusy and I knew it had to be the focal point of a truly unique pendant. The moonstones seemed to fit the mood and create the drama the drusy commanded.
