I have wrapped a natural piece of Sonora sunset gemstone with sterling silver wire. This comes with a 24 inch silver chain. The stone has been lightly tumbled to smooth the rough edges.
Sonora Sunset is a semi precious stone that combines chrysocolla and the chalcotrichite variety of cuprite. The crimson cuprite is a rich carmine color and the chrysocolla is turquoise green. It often contains hematite and tenorite, which gives it the black veins. The combination creates unusual color patterns and it is found almost exclusively in Millpillas Mine, Sonora, Mexico. This gives it the common name of Sonora Sunset. Chrysocolla is a healing stone and can help restore the body's natural defenses. It has a calming and soothing effect that is good for stress relief. Cuprite can aid in dealing with anxiety and irrational terror and is a good stone to use with behavior modification therapy.
