Grossular Garnet and Chalcedony Pendant & Brooch
Art Deco influence clearly comes through in this early Steve Walters black chalcedony carving. The simple steps in the open triangle shape are finished in two different polished finishes for striking contrast. The simplicity of the carving makes a masterful statement. The rare and unusual grossular garnet in a beautiful sherry hue finishes this piece beautifully. The 18kt setting accentuates the two stones beautifully without overwhelming them.
The hand-fabricated 18kt mounting allows this piece to be worn as a brooch, or hung from a wide variety of necklaces, including pearls.
