This hand-forged sterling silver pendant is built in our Adirondack jewelry studio, featuring a five-stone Boulder Ridge composition anchored by a large oval Red Dahlia Mohave stone. A turquoise heart is layered above, with round pyrite and turquoise stones set below, forming a structured, vertical arrangement. This is one-of-a-kind silver jewelry, shaped through disciplined bench work and guided by balance, weight, and natural material.
Form & Wearability
Measuring approximately 1.75 inches in length, this pendant carries a strong, vertical presence while maintaining controlled proportion. The layered structure creates depth, with each stone positioned at varying elevations to form a cohesive, grounded composition.
Despite its statement scale, the pendant is designed for wearability, allowing it to sit naturally while holding its structure. The arrangement creates movement through form rather than excess size.
Material & Studio Practice
Forged from solid sterling silver, this pendant is constructed through a multi-stage process using traditional silversmithing tools. Each stone is individually set, with the Red Dahlia Mohave forming the base layer, supporting the elevated turquoise heart and the lower round accents.
The oxidized finish enhances depth and separation between elements, allowing each stone and setting to remain clearly defined. This is artisan sterling silver work rooted in traditional metalwork, where structure and composition are built with precision at the bench.
