Happy New Year !
.
Well it is time to say "Good-bye" to the old year and "Hello" to the new. Welcome 2010 ! But for many 2010 will be the Year of the Tiger, which is also known by its formal name of 'Geng Yin', which doesn't start until February 14th, 2010.
.
As 2009 ends one looks back at what has been accomplished and what didn't get completed. So in looking back decided to take a look at all the jewelry pieces that have completed and try and decide which one was the best. That is an impossible task, so decided to look at the completed pieces in several catagories.
.
This Turquoise, Carnelian and Silver set was the most complicated to construct.
.
One of the most unusual pieces was constructed of Sea Jasper and Pearl Sticks.
.
The most expensive set is this set of Sleeping Beauty Turquoise, Wild Horse Magnesite (Turquoise) and Ivorite with the Silver Pendant containing more Wild Horse.
.
Probably the most unusual stone used in a set was this Seraphenite (Russian Angel Stone) mixed with green Adventurine.
.
And for the most unusual, Lampwork Beads, Golden Jasper and Onyx will be hard to beat in this off-set design.
.
And one of the best selling stones is Hematite, here in a simple set mixed with Coral and an Arrowhead Pendant.
So ends 2009, we hope everyone had an enjoyable year and we look forward to seeing or friends and customers again during 2010.
