This is a 30 carat Aquamarine cabochon, cut in a large teardrop shape. I fused branches of Argentium silver together to form a frame, and then added lots of silver twigs for detail. Reminiscent of a pile of twigs on the forest floor.
The length is 12.5 cm wide and 6.2 cm deep, and the weight is 56.5 grams.
I’ve handmade a chain of large Argentium silver links, with little piles of twigs between.

Argentium Silver is a high quality silver with germanium added. Argentium silver is whiter, harder, slower to tarnish, purer (nickel-free) and has a higher silver content of 935 (sterling is 925)
