garnet and citrine adjustable chain pendants

The main feature of this necklace is the adjustable length. One end of the delicate chain loops into the other, making it possible to slide the pendant higher or lower. The pendant has white topaz and citrine briolettes, as well as garnet beads and vermeil cubes.

materials:

  • Argentium sterling silverArgentium sterling silver is a new sterling silver alloy that uses germanium instead of some of the copper in the alloy. The metal has a nice silver color and is much more tarnish resistant than regular sterling silver.
  • sterling silverSterling silver is a beautiful white metal, that is a mixture of pure silver and copper.
  • vermeilVermeil is gold plated over sterling silver.
  • citrineCitrine, like amythest, is a variety of quartz. It can be yellow, orangy, or reddish. Citrine is often heat treated to improve it's color.
  • garnetGarnets are available in a wide variety of colors, from the rare green tsavorite and demantoid garnets to the rare orange spessartite garnet to the red or pink rhodolite, pyrope, and almandite garnets. The most plentiful garnets are pyrope, almandite, or a combination of the two. Garnets are rarely treated.
  • topaz, colorlessMany people know of topaz as a blue gemstone. However, in nature, topaz is typically colorless. I like to use faceted, colorless topaz to add a bit of sparkle.
