"RED HOT CHILI PEPPER" NECKLACE

"Red Hot Chili Pepper, Raw Red Jasper Beach Stone, Lake Michigan, 925 Silver Chili Charm, 24 Inch Silver Plated Petite Ball Chain Necklace
I found this beautiful rich red natural jasper raw gem stone in Lake Michigan. It is not often that I attempt drilling this type of stone due to its hardness. But I had to find a mate for red hot chili pepper! This high quality 925 sterling silver chili pepper charm has a wonderful red resin inlay for color that is dark red with black veining. The charm measures approximately 21 mm tall and 4 mm wide and is Made in the USA.
The stone is 17 mm with lovely texture, has a 2.1 mm drilled hole and fitted with a silver jump ring which attaches a stainless steel fishing swivel connector to the adorable chili pepper charm. The petite ball chain is 24 inches and is shiny and dainty."
