Star Ruby and watermelon tourmaline Pendant

This rather special Pendant combines two deep, richly coloured  natural semi precious gems.
A stunning  star Ruby, where a single point of light creates a six pointed star that dances across the surface of the stone as it is  moved and  a wonderful chunk of faceted watermelon tourmaline, set in to Indian silver.
Hinged to sit comfortably against the skin.
 
92.5% Indian Silver  (not hall marked).
Approx. 48mm drop. Max  20mm across.
Approx. 14.5 grams.
This piece was designed by Joanna Hall. She selects the semi precious stones in Jaipur from various stone cutting families and dealers, alway choosing the very best - "The ones that sing". 
Surrounded by the stones she designs these totally unique pieces, allowing the colours and shapes of the gems to take the lead.  These one off creations are then set in silver by some of the most skilled silver smiths in the trade.
Jo has been working with some of the families in this process for over 25 years.
 
Chain sold separately.
