Amazonite, Dyed Mother of Pearl, Citrine and Apatite

This necklace is two strands attached at the clasp and wrapped together. The large nuggets are a stone called Amazonite, a gemstone that is named after the Amazon River. Amazonite is not however found anywhere near the Amazon River. It is said that Amazonite is a stone that helps with self-expression and communication. The second strand is composed of dyed Mother of Pearl tubes, Citrine and an aqua colored stone called Apatite. The earrings are made with the dyed Mother of Pearl, Citrine and Apatite as well.

I really love the twisted effect of the necklace. Is there a way you could use the larger stone of the necklace in the earrings too? It might tie them together more. I love the color of the stone.
