This pendant is one of my most recent favorite builds. With that sweet art nouveau flowering lady face and paired with an icy pale blue Aquamarine and vintage fleur detail, such a well balanced beauty!
All solid handcrafted sterling silver pendant set with a sturdy rolo link style chain. Pendant measures 2 1/2" in drop length and 1/2" at widest sides. Stone is a pale icy blue rose cut top Aquamarine in an irregular cut teardrop shape. Stone is set in a fancy prong style bezel and a diamond cut wire detail surrounding it. Above stone setting is a vintage hand pressed fleur like design and linked above that is the another hand pressed vintage impression of an art nouveau styled ladies face with flower like hair surrounding her face.
Fun little insight into impressions. -When I say they are hand pressed from vintage impressions, these are done using a vintage replicated impression die that I have acquired for use in my jewelry making. The metal gets pressed into the die copy using the force from a jack for an exact replicated impression. I can't confirm the age of most dies but some can be around 200 years old or some as new as 20 year old copies of the originals. Pretty cool huh!
Patina is added for definition in detail and finished off with a light polish for shine.
All handcrafted in my persona home studio and made with love and good intentions!
