Crazy Lace Agate Pendant, Sterling Silver, Oxidized Granulation, Neutral, Teardrop Necklace, One of a Kind

Crazy lace agate comes in every temperature of color, and this cab landed at the cooler, quieter end of that spectrum. Cream and white with soft rust and tan run through it in the loosely meandering lines the stone is known for, offering the same geological restlessness as its bolder counterparts, but in a more relaxed pattern. The restrained palette is the kind of neutral that works with everything and competes with nothing, as great for the minimalist as it is for the person who likes to layer their jewelry. 

Spheres in various sizes arc across the top and extend slightly down the sides. Each sphere is individually placed so the grouping gives a "frilled" effect which ornaments the stone, rather than overpowering it. This group of spheres closely hugs the setting, gently echoing the soft curve of the gem's dome. 

Hallmarked .925 and Blue Piranha.

Size: just under 1 1/4 inches (3.2 cm) long from top of bail to bottom of pendant, and 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) wide. Weight is 6.6 grams.

The pendant arrives gift boxed in a soft pouch with a story card.

Each pendant is available without a chain. If you'd like to add one, I offer several lengths and styles, please choose from the options at checkout. Every chain comes with a 2-inch extender so you can vary the length.

Good for: someone who wears warm tones worn with the kind of quiet authority that needs no explanation. The person one who collects things that required the earth's full patience to produce, and skilled hands to finish. The woman who wears warm neutrals like a considered decision rather than a default.

About Crazy Lace Agate: 

Found only in the state of Chihuahua in northern Mexico, crazy lace agate gets its name from the intricate banding that swirls across its surface in tight, layered patterns. The color palette runs from cream and soft gray through warm tan and brown, with rust-orange and red tones that are the hardest to find and the most prized. Because of its vast variety, no two stones cut from the same deposit will have the same pattern. Agate is a variety of chalcedony, formed in volcanic rock, and the banding records successive layers of silica-rich fluid deposited over time.
