PLEASE NOTE: The photographs give the illusion the jewelry looks
larger than it is: this is to show you the detail you could not see without a
magnifying glass. Please look at ALL photographs posted…there is always one or
two photos with ruler measurements in every listing created to give you an
accurate indication of size-thank you!
I love these Peruvian pendants created with different stones and shells like mother of pearl, abalone shell, and many colors of spiny oyster plus lapis, onyx and coral. Here we have a penguin created with lapis (or sodalite), green Chrysocolla, red coral and black onyx. If you have been looking for a Peruvian pendant, this is a great one!
The pendant is not marked Peru or
shows an artist hallmark. This is mostly due to the fact early Peruvian vintage
pieces are just marked 950. Also, this mosaic design comes mostly
from Peru, so that’s where I believe this pendant comes from.
Since the pendant was a preowned
item, I cleaned it with an electromagnetic cleaner with sanitizer so it’s ready
to wear…yay clap clap clap!!!! Also, the pendant is a vintage piece with minor
scratches and a bit of patina too!
The jewelry will be shipped inside
the pink jewelry gift box pictured.
Thanks for looking and have a great day!
