Pink Gem Stones

[Jo]

I know this is the place for sources. I want to put together earrings like these but with a single strand on each ear.

Does anyone know where I could find pink (quartz or other) faceted pears like these and maybe round lavender faceted round gem stones? Note, the stones have to have bead-type holes in order to make the concept work.

Thanks!

i assume you just want a few to make your own project. not a strand?
i would recommend pink topaz if you want a bright pink, pink amethyst for a pale pink, morganite (pink beryl) for a barely perceptible pink, and pink tourmaline for a deep pink. I would''t recommend pink rose quartz as that will fade in sunlight. Pink kunzite is another option but generally harder to find.

for strands here are some quality and reputable sources:

I know Amulete doesn''t stock it in his online store, but does stock it in person. send him an email for what you''re looking for
