I can't give any details yet, but I've seen a prototype of a handmade pendant that seems to be possible to use as in a necklace or a earring once it's finished.
Basically it's a Go stone, 7 mm Yuki Slate & Shell framed with threads of gold or silver (I've only seen a Shell stone framed with brass threads yet myself, but I sure think it looks great).
I haven't signed any papers or anything but I'd say that I will most probably have these in stock in time for people wanting to find Christmas presents...
Shipping will be relatively cheap since they are kind of small and don't weight too much, but if I can have it my way I'd prefer other, local, shops to buy them (with a due discount on the price of course), I'll post pictures as soon as I have permission to do so, and give a final price once the deal with the artist is finalized.
My guess is that the price would be around SEK 350 for one stone (~€35/$50?), possibly a slighter higher price for the Shell pendants, but we'll see.

The threads are brass on these, but gold or silver will be used for the final pieces, on the silver version the threads will have a "lighter" look.

Re: Go Jewlery coming up
I have 4 each in stock now, price is set to SEK 500:-/475:- plus shipping.
One reason the price became a bit higher than I first expected is that they are made by a private person and not a company, so I have to add VAT, but there is no VAT to be deducted.

Re: Go Jewlery coming up
Those look really nice. If you manage to have some made that are a little more "masculine" I would definitely be in for one.
