What makes Rosasite so interesting also makes it difficult to use in jewelry. This example of Rosasite in Iron Hat (Gossan) has such a nice shape with such lovely colors, I had to try to use it. Leigh left the stone very thick to capture as much of the pretty blue green lake as possible, leaving the sturdy mahogany Iron Hat surrounding it for strength and color contrast. You'll find a heron on the back, scanning the water for a tidbit. A combination of chain elements including handmade sterling and sterling and turquoise beads supports the pendant.
