The sun has sunk below the horizon, with its last light visible as a blazing orange that gradually fades into reds, purples, violets, and finally to the inky blackness of the night sky.
Faceted gems in the muted colors of the fading sky descend in a sparkling cascade of dusk: black spinel, iolite, amethyst, ruby, and hessonite garnet. The facets of each stone create flashy sparkles when they catch the light. The chain is finished with a handmade hook clasp. The silver has been oxidized, a process which creates the blackened or antiqued appearance on silver. The raised points have been polished to shine, while the low points retain the oxidized color to show off the depth and details. All metal used in this piece is sterling silver.
This item is already made, and will be shipped 3-5 business days after the payment is processed. Shipping options will be available to choose upon check-out.
A few notes on caring for oxidized sterling silver: oxidized patina on sterling silver isn't particularly durable to long-term exposure to water (like bathing or swimming) or a lot of scrubbing, as friction is the way to polish silver to shine. Constant exposure to tasks such as hand washing, bathing, swimming, washing dishes, etc., will slowly wear away the oxidized patina leaving a shiny silver finish.
