Christmas time is coming. It’s very true that to find a Christmas tree at this time of the year it’s a miracle comparable to winning a lottery, but one thing is certain – as is the case every year, the Holidays are on their way. Another few weeks and the more anxious sellers will start showering us with the holiday advertising of their products, another Christmas enthusiast will decorate their car with plastic reindeer horns and a red nose, and once again we will hear the divine voice of Elvis singing \u201cBlue Christmas\u201d on the radio.<\/p>\n

If someone thought we will now write about Christmas presents or better yet, presents for close ones in the form of jewelry from silverrush, is quite mistaken. We will write about colors, especially green and red. We don’t know how you, but to us, these two colors are always associated with Christmas time. It is exactly green and red, aside from white of course, that strongly dominate the Holiday time and that is exactly what we’d like to write about today.<\/p>\n

It so happened that one sunny day in the middle of summer, a charming small stone in the colors of bright red and sharp green with black irregular lines separating one from the other of these contrasting colors fell into my hands by coincidence. I’ve never previously seem a more interesting stone. It turned out, that this small humble stone was the Sonora sunrise jasper<\/a>. A stone, which I’ve never heard of its existence previously, caught my attention with its beauty and unique colors and shades. I immediately thought that it will look angelic in sterling silver casing and have decided, that we have to have this stone in our silverrush style collection. When I saw our first pendant with Sonora sunrise jasper<\/a> I couldn’t believe how charming and mysterious it looks.<\/p>\n

After a while, rings, a bracelet and a necklace was crafted. The earrings were the most difficult to craft, because of the fact that we had to match two almost identical stones in the same colors of the green with red. Our collection of Sonora sunrise jasper started growing from day to day, we are proud to say that we have one of the largest collections of jewelry with this gorgeous stone.<\/p>\n

If you haven’t seen how beautiful and exceptional this stone looks yet, no worries, our collection is growing and is winning more and more loyal fans.<\/p>\n

There is something extraordinary in this stone, because on one hand it has a subtle decoration of turquoise<\/a> or chrysocolla and on the other, it has the magic power and brightness of red coral<\/a>. It is amazing, however, that these two, very different from each other colors can create one stone.<\/p>\n

Since “mother nature” created such a wondrous stone, a question arises where this stone was discovered. It turns out, that it has been found in Northern Mexico at the California border in the province of Sonora and that’s where its name originates from, but why sunrise (some also call it sunset)? This is due to its shades and colors resembling the magical red of the rising or setting sun with a background of dark green cactuses, which densely grow in the Sonora desert.<\/p>\n

While creating our jewelry, we try to show not only the beauty of this unique stone, but also try to resemble the desert of Sonora with its shapes and looks in our designs, and this is why it happens often that stones are united in irregular patterns, the rings remind us of rocky mountains, earrings of tall cactuses swimming in the bright red of the rising sun and necklaces, which usually have a circular or elliptical shape or long and sharp triangles that look like rocks. These are the elements that we often use in our collections. Due to this, we have one of the most mysterious and unique collections of jewelry which will not be found anywhere else. This is how the magic of red and green trapped by a spell of nature in one stone works.<\/p>\n

We began about the Holiday season, then about the colors, but finished writing about the most beautiful stone straight from Sonora, but it couldn’t be any different because Sonora sunrise jasper is a stone of Christmas. In three short words \u2013 Holidays are coming.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
