Well made, this pendant, initially carved in stone, was poured the way silver ingots are made. The silver image was then hand finished and stamped decoration was added to the "skirt". The design is traditional and reminiscent of ancient petrogrlyphs and pictographs--though strikingly modern in appearance!
This handsome sculpture can be worn by either gent or lady--on a cord, chain or strand of beads. If this one's for you, but you don't have the neckware, please do not hesitate to ask for what you would like. We can help you find the perfect chain or cord in just the length you need. "He" awaits a stylish wearer.
