♢ The dendritic agate is naturally occurring quartz gemstone with "dendrites" that resemble landscapes or tree branches. This specific stone is semi-transparent with a light brown coloration and dark brown/ black inclusions.
♢ Pendant made with Argentium sterling silver, chain is sterling silver.
♢ I have applied a dark patina to the recesses areas of the pendant. The high points are polished to a bright shine, creating a beautiful contrast. This contrast between dark and light is what sterling silver is famous for!
♢ The pendant features five little accent ball details, a simple double loop for the bail, and the gemstone is bezel set. The back holds my trademark "MP" and is stamped ".925"
♢ The process of creating is slow and intentional, I use traditional metalsmithing tools and processes alongside modern ones to create all my pieces by hand. My heart goes into every single piece I design, all from my studio located in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
