Springtime Longings - Candelaria Hills Variscite Ring

I ended up finishing quite a few projects this Saturday AND even taking photos. 

Here's the first piece, which will be listed in my shop this evening.  It's a piece of Candelaria Hills Variscite surrounded by leaves and fronds - and even a flower!

I probably made that little silver flower last fall, when I was playing with my disc cutter.  It ended up in a jar where I put odds and ends.  I suddenly remembered it just as I was deciding where to place the leaves around the setting and thought it with fit right in.  (If you look at the variscite and use your imagination, I can see a couple of flowers in the patterns of the stone.)

And as a final touch, I added a little contrariwise dragonfly on the underside.

UPDATE:  If you want to see more photos, here's the listing.
