Hidden Scenes — The Meeting; A Petrified Opalized Wood Pendant Necklace in Sterling Silver

This natural blue opalized wood, petrified for millennia. It’s difficult to imagine this here was once part of an ancient tree. It almost seems some kind of spellbinding magic that an old tree trunk can do this.

The ancient veining in this petrified tree offers deep indigo hued striations. Wrapped in fine silver, and set in such a way on hand cut silver; this piece offers a charming underwater scene when you hold it up to the light. … Almost as if it were hidden, until light shines from behind.

This stunning stone is 1.5 inches from top to bottom and 1.3 inches across. The 19.5 inch sterling silver chain finishes in the back with an over sized lobster clasp and hand cut fish shaped finding.

This piece incorporates recycled silver, as my other pieces and is all completed by my hand, using no power tools or harsh chemicals in the process.

As a reminder, please no submerging my jewelry in liquids, as refraining from doing so will prolong the silvers’ luster and will keep from aggravating the crack. (See Below) ….

** Please Note ** 

In taking photos of this lovely piece, my cat Frank meowed at me through the screen door, as I went to turn to him to say something in reply, I dropped the piece. On the stone patio. Right on the corner. Ouch.

The first picture is before. Now, there is a crack in the upper left hand corner of the stone. I am pointing it out in one of my videos in this listing.

Perhaps a testament to the fact that nothing is perfect. Still, it’s a bummer.

Still gorgeous, this lady is offered at a price that more effectively reflects her “travels” in the World. — If she goes home with you, please treat her gently. The stone is securely set, so this piece will stand time as long as it isn’t treated poorly.
