Nice! Is it stone or polymer?

It's melted together from multiple colorized glass fragments.

The background color makes for a very pleasing eye photo. That said, having built a bit of jewelry over the years I would like to see more contrast in the background allowing the detail of the subject to be more discernable. Thanks for sharing this shot as it sparks two of my interests. Well done to both you and your mother.

Can you post an example? It would help me to imagine exactly what are you suggesting. Thanks!
This was my first attempt about jewelry.

Finally I decided to just use the roof as a dissusor. I used two off camera flashes bounced from the white roof. For the best reflection I would need a very big softbox, wich I don't have.
