Eye of Malawi SOLD
Handmade Pendant / Slide for Necklaces

Enjoy the luscious elegancy of Malawi blue chalcedony with this elegant and unusual pendant / Slide. Eye of Malawi is a pendant I handcrafted from a gorgeous Malawi blue chalcedony cabochon and tarnish-resistant Argentium® silver genuine .925 sterling silver wire. Many thanks to Isaac LeFever for inspiring me to find a way to use this coiling style to set a cabochon.

This pendant is approximately 1.5" (38.9 mm) long including bail which will accommodate chains up to approximately 8 mm in size. To wear it as a necklace or brooch, you can use it with your favorite chain, or you can add an inexpensive accessory like a bar pin to use it as a brooch, to make it an even more versatile piece of jewelry.

In alignment with the mystical lore associated with the stone, I crafted this piece with the prayer and intent that the wearer be blessed with mind/body/spirit balance.
