Need some input. I have been given the task of displaying my jewelry in the Artists Co-op I am involved with. I want some of the displays to include local rock specimens plus my jewelry. Some will be front window displays. Posting 2 ideas here. Note that they will be raised on wooden boxes and the fabric will not be the black scrap pictured here. Am also putting together children’s rock hounding kits that will include local specimens, where to find them and safety tips. The Amethyst and Turquoise necklace was made from old tumbles as was the Turquoise and Coral in the other necklace. The Red coral branches were purchased before it was illegal to harvest natural Red Corral. Thunder Bay Amethyst and Arizona Turquoise, circa 1980’s and 1990’s. Other items will be displayed in modified shadow boxes and on Diamond willow walking sticks, in addition to hanging from the bottom of shelves.

They look very nice. Just exactly what kind of input were you looking for. I couldn't discern a question in your post.

I like to mix rough with finished pieces in my displays, sometimes a rough chunk of the stone used in the cabochon or jewelry.

On how the window display would be? Never displayed any of my creations in this way before on a street side window front in an Art GAllery.
