Turquoise Nugget Paperclip Silver 52" Necklace, Arts & Crafts Style
About the Item
This turquoise nugget paperclip silver 52" necklace was created in the Arts & Crafts Style, most likely in the 1970s.
The 3.73mm wide paperclip silver links are punctuated by the most gorgeous, fascinating, natural turquoise nuggets. The turquoise stones seem to me to be from several different mines, making this something of a turquoise "specimen necklace." Bisbee, possibly Lander Blue, Lone Mountain, Number Eight. I can't be sure that I am correct without a laboratory examination, but the stones are consistent in appearance with stones from these locations.
The luxurious, slightly eccentric length means you can wear it as a single strand around your neck and allow it to fall where it may. Or you can double it. Possibly you can triple it. And even wear it as a bracelet. A classic spring clasp -very sturdy- gives you this flexibility.
The turquoise stones -with an average size of approximately 15mm x 11mm) appear to me to be un-stabilized. One or two of the stones may have a nick, but it's kind of hard to tell because of their naturally irregular shape. Overall, the necklace is in beautiful condition. And it truly captures the spirit of the Arts and Crafts era -entirely handmade, utterly natural, and simply beautiful.

Chalcedony Bracelet, Arts & Crafts Style Circa 1970s
Located in Southbury, CT
This luminous blue and grayish-blue chalcedony bracelet was created in the Arts & Crafts style though it dates to a later era; probably the 1970s. This one-of-a-kind bracelet was completely handmade using natural highly translucent chalcedony gems that range in tone from faint blue to rich periwinkle. At 141 grams, it's a satisfyingly substantial bracelet that will not get lost on your arm.
The central flower-shaped arrangement is composed of one round 21mm chalcedony cabochon surrounded by eight oval and pear-shaped stones, along with two large 20mm x 17mm pear-shaped cabochons north and south. This collection of stones are soldered together as one piece that is curved to follow the arch of your wrist. On either side of this central design element are nine chalcedony cabochons, each bezel set and joined by hand-formed links. The links terminate on both ends at a row of 5 stones: two round, three ovals. The bracelet closes securely with a box clasp and safety latch. Because the central portion of this very large bracelet is fused, it's not a sloppy piece; the gems don't spin around on your wrist and become tangled. It retains its form and only the stones on the sides that are linked by chain can move freely. It's a clever design.
The bracelet measures 7 ½ in length and is 3 ¾ wide. So it should fit many but the largest wrists. The bracelet is marked 925 for the silver and has an unknown maker's mark I cannot identify.
