Jay King Turquoise Inlay Sterling Silver Pendant and 18-1/4" Beaded Necklace

Cater to your desire for truly unique jewelry with the captivating design of Jay King's Turquoise Inlay Sterling Silver Pendant and Beaded Necklace. The round pendant's stabilized turquoise inlays are specially cut to fit this intriguing offering's sterling metalwork. A round cutout at the design's center forms the central cross shape, while eyecatching, geometric sterling overlays decorate turquoise inlays.

Wear the pendant with the accompanying necklace, which boasts stabilized turquoise beads and sterling end caps. 

Note: This necklace is strung leaving a portion of the stringing material exposed, in order to allow the beads to move freely.  This provides both flexibility and strength. It also allows the necklace to be coiled for storage.  If the piece is strung too tight, it may result in damage to the cording or beads.

About stabilized turquoise...
Moisture, skin oils and environmental factors can change the color of turquoise jewelry if left untreated. But stabilizing turquoise helps preserve the stone's normal color. Natural, mined turquoise nuggets are heated at a very low temperature for about a week, slowly drawing out moisture without damaging the texture. The stones are then placed into acrylic or polymer chemicals to replace water molecules. This stabilizes the stone and keeps its beauty and value intact.

Note: Gemstones and pearls are sometimes treated to enhance their natural beauty.   see details
