Lapis Lazuli Heart Hand-Forged Sterling Silver Pendant

This one-of-a-kind pendant features a lapis lazuli heart set in hand-forged sterling silver, built in our Adirondack jewelry studio using traditional silversmithing tools. The stone is framed in a scalloped bezel, allowing its deep blue tone to stand forward within a structured form. A twisted wire detail moves along one side of the heart, introducing a layered element within the composition. Formed at the bench, this piece reflects the clarity and presence of heirloom quality silver.

Form & Proportion

The pendant carries a balanced heart form, measuring approximately 1.5 inches in length. The scale offers a strong visual presence while remaining wearable. The asymmetrical placement of the twisted wire adds movement and dimension, creating a composed yet dynamic silhouette.

Materials & Method

Forged from solid sterling silver, the pendant is shaped and refined through controlled tool work within the studio. The scalloped bezel is formed to follow the contours of the heart-shaped stone, while the twisted wire detail is applied with precision to create contrast in texture and line. This is hand-forged sterling silver jewelry built for durability and long-term wear.
