Sterling silver chain necklace with African trade beads and a Hubei turquoise pendant.

The chain is a fine oval link, oxidized for contrast. The front section is strung with bright red glass trade beads, with a few turquoise beads worked into the strand.

A small Hubei turquoise stone hangs at center, set in sterling silver. The pendant is removable.

On the back, a hand-sawed star is soldered in place and stamped with my maker’s mark.

Wear it with the drop, without it, or layered with other chains.

Made by hand in my studio in Durango, Colorado.

Hand forged heirlooms for the soul-driven.
