Vintage Silver Lapis Lazuli Pendant Necklace A striking late 20th century modernist silver pendant necklace centred by an oval cabochon of vivid cobalt blue lapis lazuli with natural golden pyrite inclusions. The pendant is formed as a substantial hammered silver teardrop with a polished raised border and polished ball terminals to the top and bottom. A tubular bail allows the accompanying silver rolo chain to pass freely through the pendant, giving it a clean, architectural appearance. The pendant and chain together weigh 28.10 grams, giving the necklace a substantial feel when worn. No legible hallmarks but the necklace has been tested as silver. Measurements Pendant: 7.6 cm (3 in) Width: 3.8 cm (1.5 in) Chain: approximately 43 cm (17 in) The chain is fitted with an intermediate jump ring, allowing the necklace to be worn at either its full length or a shorter length. Dating to the late 20th century, this is an eye-catching modernist-style statement necklace, sold complete with its silver rolo chain.
