Converted 1930s Bar Pin Pendant with Sleeping Beauty Turquoise on 30" Chain
About the Item
Eytan Brandes converted a 1930's bar pin to a bar pendant. He gave the sleek Art Deco design in 10 karat rosy yellow gold a little color boost by adding a tiny slab of genuine Sleeping Beauty Turquoise.*
The pendant comes with a long battuta chain in 14 karat yellow gold, probably dating from the 1960's. This link is one of Eytan's favorites but it's nearly impossible to find nowadays. It resembles a serpentine link, but it's much more flexible and substantial. Eytan thought the machined, solid look of the chain went well with the pendant, but to tie it up, he replaced the chain's original clasp with a 10K rose gold swivel clip.
The chain and pendant can be worn separately.

*Eytan bought a chunk of this chewy, no-matrix stone before the Arizona mine that produced it closed permanently in 2012. We've used about 95% of this chunk for various projects, but Eytan is hell-bent on making that remaining 5% last as looooong as possible by using ever smaller and smaller pieces until we're just left with one subatomic particle that can't be divided due to the laws of physics.
