The stones in this necklace display unusual matrix that transitions from dark brown to smokey with a few small flecks of pyrite to a deep blue "water web". Extraordinary !
There are 8 hand-cut oval cabochons ranging in size from 3/4" X 1/2" and 11/16" to 1/2" at the center to 1/2" X 3/8" at the smallest.
The pendants are fabricated from sheet and heavy gauge square wire and 14 gauage round. The oval frames for each stone are sheet backed with a clean hand-cut smooth bezel 3/16" deep securing the turquoise. A decorative bale, made of drilled and hammer spread square wire is soldered to each oval setting, so that when strung between the necklace beads, each setting radiates to produce a collar of stunning blue.
