I made these earrings a long time ago with some stones that I bought. Then a client asked for a matching pendant. Hmmmm.... might be hard to match. But, I got real lucky. I had a slab nearly identical.

First and last picture in light tent. Middle picture together on my table under halogen lights. Looks pretty close to me.

I really like how you used the hole in the earrings!

That's not luck, it's skill! You made a beautiful pendant that perfectly matches the earrings.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
