tear drop shape drusy stone wrapped in gold wireTeardrop shaped drusy stone in a simple wrap of 14 k gold filled wire (22 and 26 gauge).  There is a simple elegance that is appropriate for this stone.

So what is drusy…. The particular one is a creamy agate like stone covered with tiny clear crystals that have formed, leaving an amazing, sparkling surface.  The stone has been cut to this shape and the back is as nice as the front… slightly faceted to show off the layers.
