Pearl & Garnet Pendant

An elegant and timeless design shows off a tear-drop shaped Pearl with a beautiful lustre  from Broome in Western Australia’s tropical north.  It has a simple 18ct Gold cap to fit snuggly over the top of the Pearl and connected with tiny links to a bright round ruby red Garnet positioned above it.  The Garnet is in a coronet setting letting the light through from the sides but sits flat on the neck.  This is a traditional setting that takes time and accurate filing.  A fine gold chain would suit this well but it is displayed on a thin black PVC choker that has 9ct end caps and clasp.

Pearl:  15mm long

Rhodolite Garnet from Sri Lanka:  6mm round
