Need help picking the right stones
Hellooo. i'm not sure if its a right sub for this, but i would like some help.
My cat passed away, and i really wanted something to remember her by. I wear a lot of bracelets so i figured i might make a simple beaded one in her colors (especially that i have a tiny pendant from her collar that i could attach to it).
So i did a little bit of research, but i'm still not sure what stones i should use. Here's what i thought of using so far:
For white - i thought milky quartz
Black - obsidian
Orange (i have the most trouble with this one) - maybe orange jasper/carnelian? but i worry they would be a bit too much on the red side, and i rly want that orange tabby vibe. I also heard there is something like orange jade? i looked it up and it looks quite pretty too
I really could use some help, and i'm open to suggestions <3
Also, how do i make sure i'm buying natural stone and not something fake?
And again, if this is not the right sub for this, i'm really sorry!
