Large Natural Turquoise Multi-Pendant Sterling Silver Necklace
This elegant large statement necklace was handcrafted in Jaipur - the home of exquisite jewelry craftsmanship in Rajasthan India. It was skillfully made with 7 large natural Turquoise stones, each in a deep Sterling Silver setting.
The unusual chain and clasp are also Sterling Silver, and balance the design perfectly. Turquoise is used virtually worldwide for jewelrymaking, and is highly prized for its brilliant colors, which vary from mine to mine.
The distinctive webbing patterns and variations of color in the stones on this wonderful piece are typical of the natural Turquoise found throughout much of the Himalayan region, where Turquoise has been used in jewelry-making for millenia.
