Seeds of the Shoals

 


The focal point of this piece is a fantastic Solar Crystal, which is a slice of stalagmite (found in caves) This pricey little stone is often used in high end designed necklaces.  In my earlier years of buying materials for my baskets, I really didn't pay too much attention to the price of my stones.  I probably will never recover this one!  I surrounded it with turquoise pine needles and then an outer basket of Muhly Grass.  You can see that the inner basket comes to the outside in three different arcs. The small Chalcedoney beads decorate the spaces.  This piece has won a second place ribbon.

Approximate Size:  12 x 12 x 4 in
