Two-Piece 18K Gold & 14mm Baroque Tahitian Pearl Pendant on Apatite/Iolite Chain

About the Item

Our favorite type of pearl in one of our favorite pendant designs. This is a gorgeous, drop-shaped Tahitian cultured pearl measuring 14mm wide (and over 18mm long), purchased from our Big Pearl Guy, George Hajjar at Seven Seas Pearls in downtown Los Angeles. Mr. Hajjar deals only with Tahitian, South Sea and Akoya pearls -- no freshwater pearls and no Chinese pearls -- and he deals directly with the pearl farmers, so we always know we're getting the real thing. With the distinctive black undertone and pink/blue overtones of Tahitian pearls this pearl also boasts a graceful drop shape and overall smooth skin. Flaws are limited to a few light spots and a nice pattern of ridges (aka circles) up and down the pearl's surface. The pendant is one of Eytan Brandes' staple designs: a Byzantine-flavored, two-part slider with linked cap in rich, unmistakeable 18 karat yellow gold. The finish is a shimmery matte that pops against (rather than competing with) the glassy luster of the pearl. The total pendant length is 1-1/2" (40mm). The bale is nicely oversized (with interior dimensions of 4.5mm x 8.5mm) to accommodate most chain hardware. We're including a necklace, specially created for this pendant, of faceted dark blue iolites and silvery green apatites. This necklace is 16.5" long and has a 14 karat yellow gold lobster clasp. (As with most of our pendants, you don't have to buy the chain if you don't want it. And if you'd like us to source a different chain for you, we're happy to do so. Please just send us a message and we'll give you options and adjusted pricing. The pendant weighs 9.9 grams and the chain weighs 12.5 grams for a total necklace weight of 22.4 grams. The 18 karat gold weight is 5.5 grams.

"Gosh" Freeform Pendant in 18K Gold with Diamond & Beryl Slice on Sapphire Chain
By Eytan Brandes
Located in Sherman Oaks, CA
This one-of-a-kind pendant by Eytan Brandes features a freeform slice of gold, set with a diamond, over a freeform slice of goshenite. Goshenite is a variety of beryl -- basically aquamarine without color. We acquired a little pile of this stuff -- the palest of pale blue and oddly cut -- and were at a loss as to what to do with it until Eytan hit on the idea of setting one of them in a bezel with an oxidized (blackened) inside pan. We love the end result. The swirly pattern of the oxidization plus the faceting plus the minute coloration of the stone combine to give this humble gem a truly unique, shimmery look -- worthy, even, of a hearty "Gosh!" (if anyone actually said "gosh" anymore...) By contrast, the diamond, bezel-set to float in the opening of Eytan's 18 karat gold shard, involves absolutely no hanky-panky. It's an earth-mined, natural and untreated stone weighing 0.04 carats -- a small but high quality sparkler (Eytan rates it G-H color and VS2 clarity). The hand-wrought pulled wire bale is roughly oval-shaped and oversized, since Eytan envisioned his pendant would be paired with beads (which generally require a bigger bale than a chain), but removable. We think our choker-length strand of faceted but rough sapphire...
