Sonora Sunrise Pendant

Sonora Sunrise is a trade name for an eye-catching red and green gem material. It occurs naturally as a rock composed mainly of bluish-green chrysocolla and bright red cuprite. That color combination can be cut into beautiful cabochons that suggest a green landscape under a brilliant red sky.   The red sky and its Sonora, Mexico, origin were combined to make the “Sonora Sunrise” name.
This pendant is 2 1/4" x  1 1/2" and is set into a handmade sterling silver setting and hung from a 20" substantial rolo chain.
