Pyritized Ammonite Pendant Necklace
Regular price
$280.00
This is a stunning pyritized ammonite that I feature in a sterling silver pendant. Its golden pyrite in a black background shines beautifully, revealing the pattern of the once-living ammonite. Ammonites were ocean-dwelling molluscs that died out about 66 million years ago.
SETTING: I gave this stone a fine silver and sterling bezel setting and left a series of hammer marks around the top of the bezel. The pendant hangs from a handmade sterling chain made up of flattened oval links. It closes with a sterling handmade S hook.
SIZE: This stone measures 55mm x 35mm (2 3/16" x 1 3/8") and the links are about 26mm x 11mm (1" x 7/16"). The total length of the choker is 18".
FINISH: I oxidized the silver for a soft, dark patina.
