that's the sound we're hearing the most of around here - because this update is a doozy! Or, should I say, Druzy?

Because we have a spectacular update this week - with amazing, yummy, fabulous items, and we're going to start off this guided tour with Druzy cabochons. Or Drusy, if you prefer. Or even Drusie - because apparently

not even I can spell it consistently!
We have a wonderful new selection of
Stone Cabochons this week, including
window druzies, that's the

kind

with the smooth stone with a "window" of crystals, or just
all over crystals.

Next - we have some
turquoise cabochons. Actual turquoise - not imitation. With lovely

patterns of the matrix in them. These are not huge, but would really make a project!
And, some
Opals! These ARE synthetic - they are man-made opals, but because of that, are much more affordable. And less finicky too - stronger and less susceptable to damage.

And then, there are the stone cabochons ... oh myyyyy. If you dream of
interesting, beautiful stone cabochons, dream of these ...
Red Creek Jasper, in interesting shapes,
Shattuckite - originally from the Shattuck mine in Arizona, now mined out, but a small deposit has been found in Congo.

Perhaps you are a little baffled by cabochons - maybe you need an actual hole in your stones? Come on over to our
Stone Donut and Pendants page! How about your

Red Creek Jasper as an Inlay pendant? Beautiful pieces of Red Creek Jasper inlaid with a white stone border and

set into a frame of
amazonite or
onyx, and with a large, horizontally drilled hole.
Or what about this
Brown Leaf Jasper - sold in matched pairs, no less!
Or this lovely Amethyst Sage Chalcedony - which is

earthy and ethereal at the same time.

And, if you are looking for Inspiration on using the druzies - you can look at the very limited selection of
pendants we got - mostly just for their inspirational qualities - although, if you must (wink, wink) have one - they are for sale!
Also, you need to look at these -
Arizona Blue Lightning
Chrysocolla. Yum. Yummity Yum Yum.

OK - there is soooo much more - how do I tell you about it all?

Amazonite! The price of this was insane this year at Tucson, but we found a stash of it that we bought a while back, so the price is - well - it ain't cheap - but it's not as crazy.
Tree Agate - next to some of the flashy stuff we have this week, this might get lost, but, you know, graphic scribbles of sagey green on a white background is a pretty classy look!
Metallic plated pyrite.

Faceted pyrite stones plated with a metallic coating. Or just
gemstones.
Green Quartz,
Labradorite,
Turquoise, or graduated colour strands like
Smokey Quartz or
Amethyst.







And some limited quantity strands of some
fancy gemstones - in case you feel the need!

And still - there is more!
Modern Dzi beads,

new
Tassels!
I am so excited about
all the wonderful new stuff we have this week! Hope you can drop in and fondle it in person, or failing that - snag it online before it gets snapped up! Happy shopping - try not to drool on the keyboard, eh? ;-)
