  18K gold, oxidized silver, shakudo, smokey quartz, citrines, pearls, yellow sapphire

  1/4" x 2 3/8" x 1"

  Through the years, Suzan Rezac has collected scores of gem stones. Each stone is beautiful in its uniqueness, but dazzlingly rich when grouped with others. A superb colorist, Rezac painstakingly combines, recombines, and separates stones until each piece exudes a harmonic balance of color, shape and size.
