Blue labradorite pendant with sapphire, spinel and topaz, handmade recycled fine silver-OOAK

Deep blue honeycomb faceted labradorite set in a recycled fine silver pendant. The gemstone is set in a fleur d' lis bezel wire. Surrounding the labradorite are 3 gemstones: blue sapphire, light blue spinel and white topaz. The setting has a turbulent water texture on both the front and back. On the back side there is peek a boo hole showing the labradorite. There is also a natural sapphire set into the bail.
The pendant has a pointed teardrop shape. I gave the silver an antique patina and then polished up to a high shine. The pendant is hung on a sterling silver snake chain.
The large sapphire and spinel are lab grown gems. Identical in make up to their earth grown counterparts, just more likely to survive the high kiln temps needed.
This pendant measures 48 mm or just under 2 inches long by 25 mm wide and 8.5 mm thick.

A note on precious metal clay:
ArtClay silver is a recycled product that consists of fine silver particles suspended in an organic binder. The clay can be worked like other forms of clay, sculpted to almost any shape you desire. The product is then fired at an extremely high temperature, either by kiln or torch. The binder burns away resulting in a pure silver (.999) piece. The silver is reclaimed from such sources as 35mm film and medical and industrial leftovers. No strip mining necessary.
