This OOAK piece is forged entirely by hand in sterling silver as part of Sterling Roots’ disciplined metalwork and exists as a single, completed form.
This pendant is hand sawn from solid sterling silver, with the form determined directly at the bench rather than from a fixed pattern. A turquoise accent is set into the surface to introduce contrast without overtaking the overall structure. The sterling dusted texture adds controlled surface variation, while oxidation deepens recesses and sharpens the cut lines. Measuring just over 3.5 inches in length, the pendant carries visual weight without excess thickness. A large, purpose-built bail allows the piece to be worn on heavier chains while remaining balanced on lighter options.
