Ciondolo "Ficus" in Argento con Rubini Grezzi rodolite deep and dark in tone

deep and dark in tone

no matter how far apart they may be

Some inclusions at the 10x loupe

to the point that it hides well the vast and widespread natural inclusions

Semi-transparent opal that when moved under the light shows a very lively play of colors

Ciondolo "Ficus" in Argento con Rubini Grezzi rodolite deep and dark in toneFor this pendant I was inspired by the Ficus watkinsiana also called "strangler fig". The common name comes from the fact that it grows slowly around other trees and wraps itself around them with its roots. When the tree around which it grows dies and rots, only it remains, the structure that remains is of infinite beauty. Sometimes beautiful things, or even ourselves, need a support to grow on.
