Artist's Comments

This is a one-of-a-kind hand fabricated reversible Argentium silver and rhodochrosite pendant. The back of the pendant has an intricate hand pierced design that shows the back of the rhodochrosite cab and allows light to shine through the stone.

This is the second rhodochrosite pendant we've made for our friend Pegs:)

I love reversible pendants, and this is just an awesome one. The curves of the vines and the little granulated accents are wonderful!

Gorgeous! Both the stone and the metal work. :> I especially love that last photo, with the sun shining on and through the stone - it really sets off that beautiful pink color.

sweet! very nice - reversible is great! i've had to pierce backs for light effects as well, and it's nice to see some thought went into how it should be done!

That is very nice!

sweet piercing work! fantastic design, great stone.

I have been debating playing with Argentium silver for a while, maybe one day. I hate fire scale. Why did you use it on this piece?
