Unique Custom Pendant made in 14 Karat Yellow Gold and set with a Designer Cut Fossilized Dinosaur Coprolite (Poop) Stone


This unique custom pendant is done in 14 karat yellow gold and is set with a designer cut fossilized dinosaur coprolite (poop) stone. This designer pendant is 42 mm, or 1.6 inches, tall from the top of the bail. This is a true conversation piece for someone who wants unique jewelry to wear.
This coprolite stone comes from Utah from material that is over 150 million years old. It was carefully selected and hand cut by me and measures 32 by 12 mm. This unusual pendant is on sale for only $299. Send an email to me at tony@paynesjewelry.com if you would like to purchase this for yourself or someone special for Christmas. If you need a gold chain to go with it just let me know what style and length and I'll send a quote.

Pictures from an Afternoon on the Pearl River




I took a short boat trip up the Pearl River this afternoon north of Madison, Mississippi. The landing where I put my boat in is 20 minutes from my home. The temperature was in the mid 70s with a light south breeze. I didn't see any alligators this trip but there were many types of water birds including the heron above and the large group of coots below.






I did a little fishing and caught one bass which I released. I went primarily to enjoy the boat ride and take a few pictures. The leaves on the trees were almost past peak color but still very beautiful.
