Turquoise and Crystal Artisan Pendant Necklace

Hubei Turquoise & Crystal Statement Pendant

This handmade pendant combines the natural character of Hubei turquoise with the brilliance of a large turquoise colored crystal for a striking piece of wearable art.

The centerpiece is a substantial Hubei turquoise cabochon measuring approximately 2.5 inches long by 1.75 inches wide. Mined in China’s Hubei Province, Hubei turquoise is appreciated for its beautiful blue and blue green colors and distinctive natural matrix patterns. These variations give each stone its own individual character.

Hubei turquoise offers an appealing way to enjoy genuine turquoise at a more accessible price than some of the rarer and more highly sought after turquoise varieties. For those who appreciate artisan jewelry and natural gemstones, it provides the beauty and individuality of turquoise without the premium associated with certain collectible turquoise sources.

The turquoise is topped with a large faceted turquoise colored crystal that catches and reflects the light, along with two smaller turquoise cabochons that create a transition between the crystal and the larger stone. The combination of natural stone and sparkling crystal gives the pendant both an earthy presence and a touch of glamour.

The completed pendant measures approximately 4.25 inches long and 1.75 inches wide. It hangs from a 16 inch leather cord with double lobster clasps and extension chains, allowing the necklace to be lengthened by an additional 4 inches.

A distinctive choice for anyone who loves genuine turquoise, unusual gemstones, and handcrafted jewelry with a strong artisan presence.
