Slices of rare black shell in circles and ovals of various sizes are polished to a high gloss and mounted in 18K gold on a fine chain in this statement necklace. The shells are positioned to create a sense of movement for this piece that you can wear long to highlight a plunging neckline or doubled to create a layered effect.
IPPOLITA's 18K gold combines pure gold and silver in a nickel-free alloy, giving it a cooler, more nuanced tone informed by ancient and Renaissance metalwork.
IPPOLITA's sterling silver is 925 finished in a layer of 99.9% pure silver, hand-polished to a mirror finish and resistant to tarnish.
Polished Rock Candy is cut and polished rather than faceted, turquoise, lapis, chrysoprase and shell worked into fluid, organic shapes that keep each stone's own variation and color, cool and rounded against the skin.
