Carved Aquamarine and Sterling Silver Necklace

Carved Aquamarine and Sterling Silver Necklace-I purchased this gorgeous hand carved Aquamarine some time ago - each side has been hand carved with a different design. I waited and waited until inspiration struck me with just the right setting...and finally it did! I have made a cage of sterling silver wire around the stone, with prongs spaced "just so" to hold the stone in place. This pendant is the most beautiful baby blue!  I made a chain of perfectly faceted, A-Grade, 4mm Aquamarine cubes, with sterling silver cubes interspersed in the design. Aquamarine is the birthstone for those born in March. So, if you are a lover of blue, or your birth month is March, this is the necklace to wear!

The pendant with bail measures approximately 1" in length by 3/4" in width at its widest point.  The necklace measures approximately 17 1/2" in length, not including a 1 1/2" sterling silver extender chain which closes securely with a sterling lobster clasp. 

All metals used in this  necklace are .925 sterling silver.

Jewelry is made using traditional metalworking techniques, including soldering, filing, sanding, texturing, polishing, and tumbling in my home studio. Jewelry comes wrapped in a cotton-lined gift box and ships quickly. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
