Natural bands of white, gray and translucent crystal surround its center, creating a formation that seems almost suspended within the stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eI wanted the silverwork to continue that sense of movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eI built the setting by hand in sterling silver, surrounding the druzy with layers of circular texture that echo the formations within the agate. Hand-formed silver spheres and a small Amethyst accent add another dimension without taking attention away from the stone itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eBut this piece didn't end with the pendant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eI handcrafted the entire sterling silver chain specifically for \u003cstrong\u003eInner Portal\u003c\/strong\u003e, forming and connecting alternating sizes of organic silver links one by one. Their open circular shapes repeat the patterns found in both the druzy and the pendant, carrying the design all the way around the wearer rather than allowing the story to stop at the focal stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThat relationship between stone and metal is an important part of my work. I rarely begin with a predetermined design. Instead, I look at what is already happening inside the stone and allow its shapes, landscapes and patterns to tell me where the silver should go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInner Portal\u003c\/strong\u003e became a one-of-a-kind composition built around that idea—a glimpse inward, framed in silver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThe piece has since found its collector and sold for \u003cstrong\u003e$469\u003c\/strong\u003e.
