Tequila Sunrise bracelet

Today I’d like to give a little background on some of the materials used in my new bracelet ‘Tequila Sunrise’. Turquoise is made up of hydrous phosphate of copper and aluminum and ranges in color from skyblue to apple green. Indigenous to the southwest is often named for the mine from which it came. Turquoise is the birthstone for December and in healing folklore it encourage spiritual healing, creativity and happiness.

Apatite is a rare semi-precious gemstone composed of fluorine, chlorine and hydroxyl and is produced mainly in Mexico. The name apatite is from the Greek word “to deceive” because the gem varieties were often confused with other materials. The color of apatite is often due to the presence of rare earth elements or by natural irradiation.

Swarovski crystals are made in Austria and are considered the finest products of their kind in the world. Precision-cut lead crystal glass, the colors are vivid and the sparkle draws the eye. Aurora Borealis finished crystals have the same vivid colors, with the addition of a “rainbowed” coating. Swarovski crystals take their name from Daniel Swarovski who invented a machine capable of cutting crystal to perfection in 1892.
