Lapis Lazuli Hand-Forged Sterling Silver Pendant

This one-of-a-kind pendant features an elongated oval lapis lazuli set in hand-forged sterling silver, built in our Adirondack jewelry studio using traditional silversmithing tools. The stone is secured in a serrated bezel, allowing its deep blue tone to stand forward within a clean, intentional composition. Formed at the bench through disciplined tool work, this piece reflects the strength and clarity of heirloom quality silver.

Form & Proportion

The pendant is built with a minimal, elongated profile, measuring approximately one inch in length. The slight overhand of the backplate introduces depth and dimension, giving the piece a grounded presence without excess weight. Its proportions are refined and balanced, allowing it to wear easily while maintaining a strong visual line.

Materials & Method

Forged from solid sterling silver, the pendant is shaped and refined through precise, controlled tool work. The serrated bezel provides both structure and subtle texture, while the clean lines of the design keep the focus on the natural character of the lapis. This is hand-forged sterling silver jewelry built for durability and long-term wear.
