This necklace is part of the Terra line and is called by the same name. Astronomers from ancient civilizations such as Greece, China and India defended the theory that the Earth was flat. Today we know scientifically that the earth is round, but our perception of an endless flat expanse was the inspiration for Carlos Sobral to create the Terra collection. Terra brings together a striking series of flat jewels —with laser-cut natural resin plates—with an effect that blends hues found in rock formations around the planet. This necklace is the Lagrima D'or version and it features a large pendant with a white, gray and pinkish peach marbled motif with black and gold geometric accents. This necklace is adjustable up to 22" in length and is currently tied at 19" and the pendant is a pinch under 2.75" in diameter. I also have rings, earrings and bracelets listed in this pattern.

 The first United Nations Conference to address environmental degradation was held in Stockholm in 1972. Already at that time the designer Carlos Sobral was working with resin and creating new techniques and alternative products to reuse all the raw material he consumed in the production of his collections. All Sobral production strictly follows the current environmental standards; however, Sobral goes further by putting into practice the zero disposal of raw material. In addition, Sobral jewelry protects fauna and flora when it replaces what would be made from scarce materials impacting the environment such as ivory, turtle, precious stones, metals, woods and etc.. The international recognition of his work took place in New York at the Global Fashion Awards, WGSM, in 2010, when Sobral received the award of one of the three most environmentally friendly companies in the world.

Every Sobral piece I sell is signed plus it either has the Sobral tag or is on the Sobral earring card. Also included is a Sobral fabric jewelry pouch.  Because these are artist made there are no two pieces which are the same and all my ads have the photo of the exact piece you will be receiving, unless if I have multiple similar pieces available. No unfortunate surprises when you open your parcel. I have full confidence in the Sobral product which is why I offer a return policy if for any reason you are not satisfied. If you buy more than one item I will be more than happy to combine shipping. All my items have been stored in a smoke free environment.
