Erica Weiner's description for this piece made me laugh: "FACETED CYLINDERS of colorful agate are lined up to showcase the wonders of geology in one necklace.Smoke a joint and ponder the eons it took for stratified layers to harden within agate. How can the red and yellow stripes in jasper mimic a sunset? Only God could create a microcosm below to match the macrocosm above. The Victorians, sick of fussy monotone gemstones and high on laudanum patent medicines, decided to exploit nature's infinite wisdom when they mounted these specimens in gold. Now you can vibe out, too."”
