<p>I purchased ten geode slices quite a while back but couldn&#8217;t figure out the best way to mount them. I didn&#8217;t want to interfere with the beauty of the stone because they are gorgeous. I think this setting solves that problem. I soldered a sterling silver frame and added half round prongs to hold the stone. It&#8217;s simple, clean and allows light to pass through the stone. I&#8217;ve mounted three of the geode slices this way so far.</p>
<p>Look for this piece and a few others in my Etsy shop soon!</p>
