Unusual Gemstone Pendants !

Rainbow Sardonyx

I am using the word "unusual" fairly openly in these pictures of various kinds of pendants and I am saying "unusual" also from several different aspects - First, unusual stones in themselves; Second, although maybe a common stone, unusual to see in this form; and Third, an unusual size or cutting (design) of the stone.

.
Unusual or non-common stones.

Septarian Concretion..............Larvikite.....................Maw Sit Sit..........

.
Unusual to find in this size or form.

..........Pyrite..........................Eudialite.....................Sagenite...........

.
Unusual cutting, such as faceted, or special cut to show off the stone.

...............Bronzite.......................Celestite......................Muscovite........

.
Fairly well known stones with unusual cutting or left rough.

...............Coral Fossil.........Red River Jasper.....Sleeping Beauty Turquoise

.
However, no matter how unusual the stone, the size or the cutting, or if it is even a well known stone like the last ones shown, how it is mounted and what it is worn with end up making what people want or like as their specific jewelry piece.
