Kambaba
About this design:
If you get to know me at all, you'll learn that I can't pass up a good deal. So when my local craft store had 70% off already marked down clearance, you can imagine that I went a little buck-wild! This set was a result of that stash! This beautiful black and green Kambaba Jasper, paired with oxidized silver filigree connectors, makes quote a statement! Dont' you think?
Components:
Kambaba Jasper, peacock stones, oxidized silver connectorsRead the comments (or add your own)

Eeka Mouse says:Great pairing – the swirlies in the connectors echo the orbicular patterns in the (lovely) Kambaba Jasper. And it’s great you got such a deal!
