This eye-catching Necklace showcases a Turquoise and Sterling Silver Cross Pendant by noted Santa Fe Jewelry Artist Dan Dodson. The Cross features an oval Turquoise Stone wrapped in Sterling Silver Rope Wire and surrounded by 8 Turquoise Round Stones positioned on the Cross's 4 arms. The Sterling Silver Cross has intricate stamping and ornate swirls, amplifying its visual impact. The piece drapes from a Sterling Silver Ring and is stamped on the back with "Dan Dodson" and "Sterling."
We've paired with Cross with 2 Strands of Nevada Turquoise Nuggets. The Nuggets are graduated — ranging from 6-by-6mm to 10-by-17mm in dimension — and display a range of blue hues with black matrix. The Turquoise is accompanied by 3mm Olive Shell Heishi, 4.5mm light blue Czech Fire Polished Glass Faceted Rounds, and 5-by-6mm Sterling Silver Drum Beads. These elements create space between the Nuggets — enhancing their visibility — and add color depth and subtle sparkle. At the top of the Necklace the 2 strands of Turquoise transition to Olive Shell Heishi, streamlining the silhouette and ensuring a comfortable fit. The Necklace is finished with a Hammered Sterling Silver Toggle Clasp and adorned with a Southwest Designs Sterling Charm. The piece weighs 111 grams and is 22-1/4 inches long plus the Pendant, which is 2-5/8 inches by 1-3/4 inches including the 5/8-inch Bail.
Pair this Necklace with its matching Nevada Turquoise Nugget 4-Strand Bracelet for the perfect duo.
