This remarkable Necklace showcases an impressive Mexican Flats and Sterling Silver Pendant by Nevada Silversmith Jim Daggett. The Mexican Flats Nugget — mined in Mexico's northern state of Sonora — is 3 inches long by 1-5/8 inches wide, and 1/2-inch in depth. The Turquoise has been set on a thick plate of rolled, Sterling Silver, and post-set (or wrapped) in 14 gauge Sterling Silver Round Wire. The post setting allows the stone to be viewed in entirety from all angles. The Pendant hangs from a custom v-shaped Sterling Silver Bail. Quite striking! We've paired the Pendant with 3 strands of color-matched gemstones. These include 4mm Bronzite Rounds, which have a glossy finish and a subtle metallic luster. The Bronzite is complemented by elegant 8mm translucent Amber Quartz, and 6.5mm Turquoise Rounds. The stones are highlighted by six 10-by-10mm Hill Tribe Silver Faceted Bicones, and 4mm Sterling Silver Rounds. The piece is finished with Sterling Silver Beads and Toggle Clasp, and adorned with a Southwest Designs Sterling Charm. The Necklace weighs 136 grams and is 20-1/4 inches long plus the Pendant, which is 3-3/4 Inches by 1-5/8 inches (the piece has about a 12-inch vertical hang).
