CHINESE CRYSTAL BRACELET (Aurora Borealis)

The "Aurora Borealis" or Northern Lights.
The Aurora twisting and turning in patterns called "rayed bands", then whirling into a giant green corona in which colorful rays appear to flare in all directions. The rarest aurora is the red aurora, and so simulate these bursting in color, shimering Chinese Crystals.

The Aurora Borealis Designer Bracelet was created with striking Chinese Crystals with all the color and splendor of the Northern Lights. Illuminating 925 Sterling Silver beads and Sterling Silver from Bali. The enclosure is a beautiful 925 Sterling Silver toggle clasp in detailed filligree, with a shiny 925 Sterling Silver disc for engraving.

ANTELOPE ISLAND SYRACUSE, UTAH

A picture of me photographing the Salt Lake scenery.

From the mainland, its 28,022 acres appear barren and deserted. But Antelope Island is home to a variety of flora and fauna native to the Great Basin region. This is a great place to view the wildlife. The island was without its namesake antelope for many years, but they were reintroduced in 1993 and can now be seen in many areas of the park. Deer, bobcats, coyotes, many varieties of birds and waterfowl also call the island home. But most famous are Antelope Island's American Bison, introduced to the island in 1893 and now numbering some 600 animals.

















I will be getting back to my Jewelry Designs with a few gems that I purchased while in Utah. :)

MORE and MORE BISON
