Luck of the Draw – SOLD
Once upon a time, recently, at the base of the mountains there sat a studio. In this studio the artist was staring at a piece she was making. She could not decide what stone she should use as an accent stone. She put the stones away and worked on creating the setting. After the Amazonite was set she again sat staring at the different stones. She took pictures of each stone sitting in the setting so she could compare the different looks. Her head told her one thing, her heart said another. In the end… she went with her heart.
