what a bunch of abalone





Yeah, you read that right, not baloney but abalone. I wouldn't know how to fashion any jewelry out of bologna. I'm astounded that there are spam sculpting competitions, who does that medium call to? But I was quick to think of a wonderful way to showcase this piece of abalone, keep it simple and let the mollusk's inner shell (or nacre, my fifty cent word for this post) shine on it's own. So I wrapped it in wire and hung it on a delicate chain. The chain and all findings are 14 kt gold-filled. 16-1/2" in length. $37
