It even includes an easy-to-fasten magnetic closure for easy fastening and unfastening. 16” pendant necklace consisting of two different kinds of sterling chain; 1 ¼” fixed round pendant featuring oval coral cabochon atop a larger round polished bone cabochon, both set in scalloped Southwestern style filigree setting.
