Chalcedony and Garnet Sterling Silver Pendant Necklace, "The Jewel of the Palace"
Regal grandeur is called to mind by this stunning handcrafted chalcedony and garnet sterling silver pendant necklace from Indian artisan Babun Dey. Over 14 carats of gemstones are set in bezel settings in the pendant's design, which includes an ornate border edged with rawa, or tiny sterling silver beads, in a radiant finish against a darkly oxidized background. All eyes are on the large checkerboard-cut dewdrop-shaped chalcedony, but the round faceted garnet at the tip of the pendant is like the finial that perfectly caps off a palace roof. The pendant is suspended from an adjustable length cable chain which closes with a lobster claw clasp.
