Beginning with the cross--hand fabricated of ingot silver, this reversible pendant is bezel set on one side with 11 rounded natural turquoise cabochons, one bright blue and the others a deep green. Eleven hand cut pieces of red, Mediterranean coral in serrated bezels adorn the other side. Silver raindrop terminals add a finishing to the bar terminals on both sides.
There is a special hook clasp of silver ingot wire made for the necklace, so that the turquoise beads can be worn solo or with the cross suspended from it. Small silver cones and ingot wire finish the graduated strand of natural, hand-cut Emerald Valley turquoise rondels.
Beads are strung on Kevlar cord, which is exceptionally durable and drapes beautifully around a wearer's neck.
"Unknown artist" is appropriate when a work of art is unsigned and a supported opinion about who made it is not available (on Savvy Collector).. "Attributed to" precedes the name of an artist when information suggests that it likely was made by that artist (on Savvy Collector).
