Spectrolite drop pendant

This pendant features an unusually shaped piece of spectrolite which has been smoothly bezel set in sterling silver. Spectrolite is related to labradorite and displays the same flashes of colour, in this piece they are blue and orangey yellow, but whilst labradorite has a grey or brown back ground colour spectrolite has a black/ dark grey back ground. The flash of colours against the black reminds me of the northern lights against the midnight sky. Spectrolite is only found in one part of Finland where the mining season is fairly short due to the cold weather, I bought the rough that this cabochon was cut from whilst visiting Finland and then had it custom cut back in the UK. After some debate on social media we decide that the shape is best describes as paisley with wonky teardrop coming second, either way I really like it as a shape and it adds a certain something to the pendant. Measures approx 45mm (inc bail) by 27mm and comes complete with a sterling silver chain (could easily be switched to a velvet ribbon or something for a more opulent victoriana sort of style). Also comes gift boxed.
