A Very Rare Find under construction "The color green is believed to have a soothing affect. An evolutionary result of living on a green planet, the human eye is known to distinguish more than 10,000 shades of green." Marisa Zachovay, 2002 |

 Maw-Sit-Sit Pendant |
I am very often asked: what is that stone you are wearing?! Most people have never seen fine quality maw-sit-sit. It is extremely rare, hard to find finished properly and yet not at all expensive. A very simple band of metal around the edge does not detract from the stone and allows for both sides to show. There is nothing else like it on the planet and best of all, it is green!
