Sands of Time — A Petrified Wood Landscape Pendant Necklace in Sterling Silver and 14kt Gold

A River runs through this one.

Hold this Petrified Wood Opal up to the light and see the River glow.

This stone has been wrapped in a gold filled bezel and sits on an opened back sterling silver back, making this pendant reversible.

A hand hammered sterling bail suspends this from the sterling chain. Please note this chain is fixed to the pendant, and can not be removed.

The face of the pendant is about 1.5 inches tall including the bail, by about 1.15 inches wide. It hangs from an 18 inch shiny sterling silver oval cable chain and fastens with an oversized lobster clasp in the back. 

This piece is handmade and one of a kind. I have created this in an eco-friendly manner using recycled silver — from hand with no harsh jewelers chemicals and no power tools.
The old fashioned way.

Thus, it has taken me a considerable amount of time compared to using other modern jewelry techniques. Therefore, file marks, as well as asymmetries are all part of the hand-fashioned process.

** PLEASE NOTE: I can not make changes to sizing, chain lengths, or oxidation preferences once a piece is complete; I am not set up to do so. How my items show here is the final product. Because of my power tool-free ways, and lack of traditional jewelers chemicals in my process, this piece is sold as you see it here. **
