This one-of-a-kind pendant features a freeform turquoise set in hand-forged sterling silver, built in our Adirondack jewelry studio using traditional silversmithing tools. The stone is secured in a gallery bezel that adds depth and structure, while a series of sculpted river rocks crafted from solid sterling silver flow along the base of the design. Formed at the bench through disciplined tool work, this piece reflects the enduring presence of heirloom quality silver and the natural forms that inspire our work.
Form & Proportion
The pendant measures just under 2 inches in length, offering a substantial profile with strong visual presence. The freeform turquoise creates an organic silhouette, while the river rock details anchor the composition and introduce dimension across the lower edge. A larger bail balances the scale of the pendant and accommodates a variety of chain styles.
Materials & Method
Forged from solid sterling silver, the pendant is shaped and refined entirely within the studio. The gallery bezel elevates the stone and creates depth within the setting, while each river rock element is individually formed and integrated into the design. The combination of structured silverwork and natural stone creates a composition that feels both grounded and sculptural. This is hand-forged sterling silver jewelry built for durability and long-term wear.
