Giveaway: Peacock Ore Necklace by esoteric HEARTS

EDIT: Giveaway is officially closed. Congratulations to the randomly chosen 278th commenter, Irene!


Preen your feathers, girls - this peacock ore necklace will give itself freely to only one of you. Jessica of esoteric HEARTS chose this incredibly iridescent blue pendant as a prize. The photograph doesn't show nearly as many shimmering shades as the stone actually possesses - the colors change constantly in sunlight. Jessica describes rainbow peacock ore as one of the most beautiful stones she's ever seen. She's attached the stone to a silver plated bail, strung from a 20 inch silver plated chain with a lobster claw clasp.

You may recognize the simply unique quality that the esoteric HEARTS piece exudes from my handmade trove - I was lucky enough to win a druzy geode necklace last month. Now I'm prancing about proudly because I get to host a jewelry giveaway for the designer. Jessica is a 21 year old college student studying lighting and sound technology with the dream to one day be a lighting designer for a famous rock band - how fun does that sound?! She crafts jewelry for herself in her spare time and has received so many compliments that she began selling her designs exclusively on Etsy last June.
