Desert Summer
Desert Summer
Desert Summer - Handmade Kingman turquoise, jasper and turquoise cube pendant strung with graduated jasper rounds, turquoise cubes from Mexico, turquoise nuggets from China, a ocean jasper bear fetish from New Mexico, a turquoise roadrunner fetish, and Hill Tribe Silver beads from Thailand; sterling findings.
Approx 22” L, I can add chain for more length, just contact me.
This piece has gone through several designs until this one came together. I knew I wanted the jasper rounds with turquoise, but it was a matter of the right combination of turquoise...the cubes with the rounds were too geometric, and the juxtaposition of the nuggets with the rounds were too meh....then I added both types of turquoise, each with their unique colors and shapes and the design started to gel. But, then I decided to add the fetishes, and that was that...the perfect painting of the Southwest summer in the desert.
