It was a gift from a very important person that passed and I've had it forever but was in a bad accident that resulted in me losing it. I'm looking for anything similar because I can't find anything even close.. any advice on search wording, where I could buy one like it or even a person/shop whod make something similar. 20201202_001635.jpg20201202_012931.jpgIt would mean a lot and honestly just want the memories associated with it when I look at it even if sadly it isn't the original. It was 14k gold and one side was white howlite and the other was black something.. horrible picture but any help at all would be priceless because I'm at a loss..
 
I have no idea where original piece came from, but I would bet you could find someone on Etsy to make something similar. Maybe search crystal jewelry.
 
I think this is something that a lapidary/metal smith could recreate for you. I know of someone that’s on Instagram and does both lapidary and makes jewelry. He might be able to help you, here’s the link:
He has worked with howlite in the past and could most likely give you options of what he could cut for the black stone.
I hope you’re able to recreate this special piece.
 
I am so sorry you're going through this. I found a few in a similar shape on etsy, although they are all a single stone:

That honestly never even crossed my mind. Thank you! I'll definitely touch base with him and see. I truly appreciate your reply.

They are beautiful. I'll message the sellers and see if any of them do custom. If so maybe they can kind of recreate it or something close. It means a lot you took the time and has helped! With the replies I've received i feel a lot better and actually have a plan instead of the confused mess I was earlier! I know where to at least start now.
I was always a tom boy growing up and just never owned jewelry so this is a whole different confusing but beautiful world for me!]

im so sorry you lost the origonal but thank goodness you had these photos
good luck
 
I make jewellery and have used some of those stones. From memory they are called "bullet" gemstones and if you look on Etsy you'll see loads of different shapes and sizes. The design is incredibly easy to use and I'm sure you can find an Etsy seller to do
I sent a few sellers messages with my fingers crossed! I truly am grateful. I was searching double point pendant, double terminated white howlite and black gemstones pendant, black and white Multi Gem two ľ
 
Thank you for each post everyone. I haven't found it or a seller yet but i have a lot better outlook and approach now! If i obtain another necklace or not (hopeful though!) I can say that my mood isn't as low since posting and receiving the kind words and sincere help.

I suspect it's two bullet gemstones glued into the centre collar. You need to find two bullet gemstones that are the same diameter and then it will be super easy for a jeweller to make. You may have to look for different stones though because the black will be easy to find but think the white howlite may be problematic. Hope that helps.

Hi Silence! I hope you won't mind me sharing my own similar experience. I went through a very similar situation and had a piece recreated, and for me, it just didn't feel right. I actually found it more painful to look at the replica and ended up not wearing it. Ultimately, I bought a completely new and different piece that reminded me of my loved one, and it helped me a lot. Whatever you choose to do, I'm sending you the warmest wishes.
 
Just found this seller who has white howlite in a smaller size and seems to stock other bullet stones as well so maybe can help you get two that match. https://www.etsy.com/in-en/listing/...emstone-white-howlite?ref=shop_home_active_16

Oh, definitely! I haven't had any of the previous shops contact me yet but I sent a few more a message with your suggestion. and I had one contact me back! She doesn't do custom but suggested a friend that might which is greatly appreciated.

I appreciate you sharing and can understand those feelings once having it redone but it not being the original. I'm sorry for your loss of both. It's without a doubt very difficult.
I feel though that I need to still pursue it even with that big possibility because my little girl asked if i could get a duplicate is honestly the one who was the deciding push to get me started this winding path of a search. I never took it off but about two years ago she was really sad and wanted her grandma so to put it simply since that wasn't possible physically when she felt that way I'd let her wear it so she'd feel like grandma wasn't as far. Sometimes for a few days and it really did help her not just in that way but to come to me when she was sad and didn't have words to talk about what was wrong. It became in a way an amazing bonding experience.
Just as the necklace could never compare to the loss and a similar necklace will never be what the other necklace was it's still a chance to be something else while reminding me of the happiness, sadness and amazing memories the other two brought me.

Completely understand, you should do what is right for you! I so hope you find a good maker for this project.
