Micro-crystal Orbit Necklaces by Carol Roullard
Artist Carol Roullard creates unique jewelry from photomicrographs of micro-crystals.
These rotating orbit necklaces are a lot of fun. First there are two sides to the necklace each with a unique micro-crystal image. But there’s more. There is a tilt to how the orbit hangs on the chain so depending on how you rotate the setting, you can get a bit of a different effect. That can give you up to four opportunities for making a fashion statement.
Each of the two sides of the pendant is covered with a glass cabochon.
Pendant length: 1.125 in.
Approx. chain length: 24 in.
Clasp: lobster-claw

Originally from the San Francisco Bay Area, Southern California artist Carol Roullard has been an avid photographer since high school. Through the years, Carol has continued to hone her compositional skills, focusing mainly on nature, looking forward to the day when she could merge her creative skills with her passion for art and science.
Since retiring in 2010, Carol has devoted more time to capturing artistic images. She expanded her nature photography to include the microcosmos. Using a high-powered microscope, Carol captures an extraordinary, intricate world—a world of dazzling tiny crystals. She searches for unique, complex crystalline scenes that will intrigue and inspire the viewer. Many of the captured images mimic land and seascapes; all will stimulate the viewer’s imagination to conceptualize how the micro-world relates to the macro-world.
Carol has exhibited and sold her unique art locally, nationally and internationally on multiple mediums. Her art has received numerous awards and has been featured in video, print and online publications.
Along with printing her art on paper, metal and canvas to be hung on walls, Carol’s micro-crystal art is currently printed on multiple products, including cell phone cases, tote bags, plates, coasters, and note cards.
Carol has expanded her creativity to include mixed media, painting and fluid acrylics. Another passion is writing; Carol has coauthored with her husband, Brian Matsumoto, nine camera-related books.
