@Andy49man49 Well if you love the stone you might not want to risk breaking it. But, if you want to try it, tape the stone under wide masking tape down to a surface you can drill through (scrap wood). Make sure it is stable. Use a sharp and fine drill bit and slowly drill through the stone. Don't rush yourself, the drill bit can jump across smooth surfaces, so you can go right through the tape. Good luck!

This is a unique and beautiful necklace. The instructions are very helpful but not too elementary. Thanks for a great tutorial.
