Our latest pearl commission.

 

Our latest pearl commission offered a unique challenge – designing a pearl pendant that also included some very precious jade.

Nicholas drew the following options:

jade-and-pearl3 Jade-and-pearl1 Jade-and-pearl2

and the customer chose the top one.

The manufacturing process was a very intensive one for Matthew and the finished piece is bringing a lot of joy to its owner:

Jade1The three yellow gold hand made settings for the jade.

Jade2Carefully soldering the pendant bail to the pendant.

jade3Laying all of the components out before soldering.

jade4Coming together…

jade5Carefully gluing everything in place.

jade6The unique finished pendant.
