THE SPACESHIP AMULET
14K Gold and Silver Wire Wrap
by Tendai Designs
Trapiche (six-pointed) patterns are formed by impurities or inclusions in gemstones "arranged" along rotational axes or geometric lines. This is the way that the 1/3 carat Ruby Trapiche formed at the top of this gold-and-silver specimen wire-wrap. The specimens utilized in its design are listed in descending order:
Mozambique Ruby Trapiche
American Red Emerald Prism (Utah)
Colombian Emerald Prism Pair (Muzo)
Venezuelan Gold Heart/Angel Crystal
USA Tri-Colored Blue-Green-Pink Tourmaline
Vietnamese Aquamarine Prism Pair
Brazilian-Etched Aqua Pencil
The Spaceship Amulet incorporates crystals which were magnificently selected and paired together exquisitely. Countless hours were spent twisting these precious metal wires into place…and with such symmetry!
