Rough Rainbow Moonstone Hand-Forged Sterling Silver Pendant

This one-of-a-kind pendant features an oval rough rainbow moonstone set in hand-forged sterling silver, built in our Adirondack jewelry studio using traditional silversmithing tools. The natural surface of the moonstone is preserved, allowing its organic texture and flashes of iridescent color to remain the focal point. Framed in a clean straight bezel and formed at the bench through disciplined tool work, this pendant reflects the enduring beauty of heirloom quality silver.

Form & Proportion

Measuring approximately 1.5 inches in length, the pendant offers a balanced silhouette with enough scale to showcase the natural character of the rough moonstone. The simple bezel allows the stone's raw texture and shifting blue flashes to take center stage, creating a design that is both understated and sculptural.

Materials & Method

Forged from solid sterling silver, the pendant is shaped and refined entirely within the studio. The straight bezel is carefully formed around the rough moonstone to securely hold the stone while preserving its natural edges and surface. Every element is bench-built using traditional silversmithing techniques, resulting in hand-forged sterling silver jewelry designed for durability and long-term wear.
