Here is the warm, glowing citrine version of Treasured Moments - Amethyst.

Whilst creating this piece, I was thinking of sunshine, laughter and hugs :) [I told you I was turning into a sappy thing!!!!]

The photo doesn't do the gem-quality Citrine squares justice. They are beautifuly cut and when they catch the light, seem to dance on your ears.

Within the textured frames dangle faceted citrine rondells and relatively rare andalusite.

All gold bits, including ear hooks, wirework and textured frame are 14K gold-filled.

Read in the paper today that tomorrow is a hot day for weddings because of the lucky 777 -- 7th July 2007.

So that inspired the name for this pair of ear-rings which I was originally going to name, rather unimaginatively, "Andalusite and Ruby".

Hahahhahah! Thank goodness for lucky dates.

The highlight of this piece is relatively rare (according to Wikipedia at least) Andalusite.

Small flat pears of that lovely warm mineral dangle off textured gold-filled frames.

A tiny dose of passionate Ruby adds that little extra zing, as a faceted rondell swings freely within the frame.

All gold bits are 14K gold-filled.
