This beautiful pendant features an iridescent, abalone pua shell cabochon, lovingly wrapped in rich coils and weaves of solid Sterling silver wire. Three fiery Ethiopian welo opals cascade down the sides of the pendant. The wire was oxidized naturally with egg yolk, then sealed with clear lacquer to resist tarnish and protect the aged finish of the piece over time. The entire pendant measures 35x25x16mm (1.4" x 1.0" x 0.6") and comes suspended on an 18" Sterling silver chain.
This piece comes in a luxurious, black velvet jeweler's box, contained in a cardboard outer shell (so you can wrap the box without damaging the velvet); perfect for gift-giving. This is an heirloom-quality piece you can treasure for many years to come. This ships fully-insured and with international tracking, for your convenience and peace of mind.
*Coins are shown for scale and will not be included with the jewelry.
**Comes with a signed certificate of authenticity, filled in & signed by the artist; photo of the piece & materials are listed on the reverse side of the card.
