This exceptional Sterling Silver Necklace was crafted by Nevada Silversmith Jim Daggett. The 42-Piece Necklace is comprised of twenty Hammered Sterling Silver Rounds & Ovals, 21 Hammered Sterling Silver Jump Rings, and a handcrafted Sterling Silver Toggle Clasp (Ring & Bar). The primary Rings are varied in shape, adding great visual appeal. They are fashioned from heavy 12-gauge Sterling Silver Round Wire, giving the piece a very substantial feel. Each Ring was individually cut and soldered, then interlocked with the Sterling Jump Rings, forming the Chain. The Bar for the Toggle Clasp was made from 10-gauge square wire, adding character. Once the Chain was formed, each Ring was hammered and highly polished. The piece is hand-etched with "Southwest Designs." The Necklace is both a work of art and a versatile piece with timeless appeal. It weighs 60 grams and is 24-1/2 inches long.
Note: The small black marks appearing on some of the Rings are reflections, created as the hammered surfaces interact with ambient light. The Necklace is 100% polished, shiny Sterling.
