These citrine
nuggets are in a rough cut, not tumbled smooth, so they look like
honey-flavored rock candy, good enough to eat! The color is not
uniform, but they are wonderfully translucent, like bits of late
afternoon sunshine.
I joined the nuggets with gold-filled wire, finishing with a vermeil hook & eye clasp, putting the largest nuggets in the middle (they range in length from 12 to 27 mm.)
The necklace is 24 inches long (can be worn shorter by hooking the clasp as shown), with a weight of 2.5 oz.
I made matching earrings with gold-filled headpins and 2mm round gold-filled beads. The French hooks are also gold-filled.
The dangles are about an inch long, and the earrings weigh 0.1 oz.
