Sacred Moon
Pendant Necklace

Sacred Moon is an awesomely mystical and elegant pendant necklace that I handcrafted from a sodalite moon bead, beads of snow quartz, clear quartz, iolite and sterling silver, and .925 Sterling Silver wire. Almost like magic, it is made with no solders or glues, just the design of the wires holding it together. And, of course, I guarantee it will hold together! As you can probably guess, this piece got its name from the moon in the center.

The pendant is approximately 3" (77.9 mm) long from the top of the bail to the bottom of the quartz dangle. The bail will accommodate chains up to approximately 6 mm in size. The neckwire that comes with it is classy enough to wear on its own too, and it's a choker necklace style that's about 16.5" (41.9 cm).

In alignment with the properties of the stones, I crafted this piece with the prayer and intent that the wearer be blessed with ability to know and follow one's own inner truth.
