Identification (by visible stones)
1) Upper left (purple, translucent)
Amethyst — quartz (SiO₂)
Translucent violet with internal veils
Typical iron-colored quartz variety
2) Upper center (brown–gold, fibrous look)
Tiger Iron / Tiger Eye mix (probable)
Brown/golden zones with darker iron-rich bands
Composite of quartz + iron oxides (hematite/goethite)
May show subtle chatoyancy (not fully visible here)
3) Upper right (orange translucent)
Carnelian — chalcedony
Semi-transparent orange-red
Even coloration, glassy polish
Iron-stained silica
4) Right center (pale gray with yellow inclusions)
Moss Agate / dendritic chalcedony (probable)
Translucent gray base
Internal “mossy” or blotchy inclusions
Typical chalcedony with mineral inclusions
5) Far right (dark green with red spots)
Bloodstone (Heliotrope)
Dark green chalcedony with red speckling
Red = iron oxide (hematite) inclusions
6) Center (pink with gray/black veining)
Rhodonite (high probability)
Pink base with darker manganese veining
Massive, opaque, commonly tumbled
Distinct from jasper due to pink tone
7) Left center (white/gray mottled)
Granite or quartz-rich feldspar mix
Coarse mottled pattern (black + white minerals)
Not chalcedony; visible grain structure
Common in tumbled mixes
8) Bottom left (dark green, slightly metallic sheen)
Green Aventurine (probable)
Dark green quartz with subtle sparkle (mica inclusions)
“Aventurescence” gives faint reflective shimmer
9) Bottom center/right (brown-gray opaque)
Brown Jasper
Opaque silica with iron staining
Uniform, earthy coloration
Jasper = opaque chalcedony
10) Background reds
Red Jasper
Opaque red, iron-rich
Common filler stone in mixed sets
Material summary
Majority: chalcedony / quartz family (SiO₂)
Includes: jasper, agate, carnelian, bloodstone
Hardness: ~6–7 Mohs
High polish due to microcrystalline silica structure
Visual description
Mixed polished stones with:
High specular highlights
Tight packing / overlapping forms
Strong color contrast (green, red, purple, brown)
Textures:
Translucent (amethyst, agate)
Opaque (jasper, rhodonite)

This piece started when I saw a few beads nestled in a cubby. They largish odds and ends, which is why they were together-- but they were, with a few additions, perfect for a nath, thebeadedlily style!
I handmade, link by link, about 5 1/2 inches (14cm) of sterling silver chain. One end is attached to a handformed sterling hook (for the nose) the other a handformed sterling hoop (for the ear)-- suspended between hang a turquoise nugget, a piece of wire wrapped pepper shaped jasper, a 15mm malachite bead, Egyptian sterling and mother of pearl, a wood cylinder and freshwater pearl, a 12mm tiger's eye bead and 3 red agate chips.
The longest piece-- the wood and pearl-- is just over 2 inches (5.5cm). It weighs 1oz (29gr)-- not too heavy for comfort.
All metal is sterling.
