A vertically oriented Argentium silver bar carries hand-stamped surface work, anchored by a solid 18k gold line running through its center. The scale is deliberate, the form is grounded, and the composition is singular. This is a one-of-a-kind pendant built at the bench and not to be recreated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-start=\"733\" data-end=\"762\"\u003eArchitectural Form \u0026amp; Scale\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"764\" data-end=\"865\"\u003eThe pendant is formed as a substantial vertical bar, measuring approximately 1.75 inches in length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"867\" data-end=\"1121\"\u003eIts elongated structure creates a strong downward line, balanced by a solid, integrated bail designed to support heavier chains.
