Baroque Grey Pearl Poppy Pendant with 18k gold Granulation and a 1.5mm Diamond
This pearl is luminous! 18k gold Granulated Dome with a 1.5 mm Diamond and Granulated Bail pictured on an 18” peacock black oxidized Sterling Silver chain. This pendant would be STUNNING with a gold chain, which you can order from me at any length to suit you.
Granulation is an ancient fusing process utilized for thousands of years by the Etruscans and Mycenaeans. I alloy 24k gold down to 22k and 18k and create tiny granules. I place these granules with a 000 paint brush and then carefully heat using a mouth torch to the point of fusing. Each sphere is connected by a tangent of metal creating a sleek and beautiful surface.
I then bezel-set the tiny 1.5mm diamond under my microscope and carefully polish each component before assembling the pendant.
