APATITE GEMSTONE BRACELET (Ocean Blue)


Apatite, a stone seldom found in jewelry stores and virtually unknown to the general public, is beloved by collectors for its many diverse colors and forms. Only with the recent availability of the neon blue-green variety from Madagascar, has its jewelry use increased.
The Ocean Blue (Double Strand) Designer Bracelet was created with spectacular top grade Apatite fancy cut gemstones, and shimmering Apatite nugget chip gemstones. The bracelet is adorned with lots of 925 Sterling Silver round smooth beads, and handcrafted Sterling Silver beads from Bali. A gorgeous Artist Lampwork center focal, by Jennifer Powers, (Etsian), accentuates the turquoise blue color in the Apatite gemstones.
The Designer piece is finished off nicely with a shiny and intricately designed Sterling Silver toggle clasp from Israel. Off the side of the clasp, is a tiny 925 Sterling and Bali Sterling Silver charm, enhanced with a single nugget of Apatite, designed by me.
