Moonstone Teardrop Pendant

This is a custom design--a graduation gift for my granddaughter. The beautiful moonstone is thick and has a high polish on its domed surface. I wrapped it in six strands of 22 gauge sterling silver wire, then added my signature topper to keep the focus on the stone.

The pendant is petite, measuring just 1 3/8" from top of bail and is just over 5/8" wide.

Note: Moonstone is a feldspar mineral, a potassium aluminum silicate with a Mohs hardness of 6 to 6.5. It was named after its blue-white sheen which is caused by its lamellar structure. Moonstones are found in Sri lanka, Madagascar, Myanmar, Australia, India and the United States. It is considered a stone of mystery, a gem of the high priestess.
