Vintage Large Lapis Lazuli & Turquoise Bead Pendant
An amazing, statement piece from the late 20th Century. This is a beautiful carved large lapis lazuli bead. The lapis has a geometric feel with multiple random shaped flat surfaces around the whole bead. On most of these surfaces is a gold set turquoise gemstone. The contrast of the bright blue with the gold and turquoise is very striking and this makes a wonderful statement. The ball of this semi precious gem has been drilled through and capped with 9ct gold ends. It can be threaded onto a fine chain and worn as a statement pendant on the neck. A truly wonderful ball pendant; a real conversation starter.
Please note, the hole through the bead would take a fairly fine chain with a jump ring of no more than 3mm. Chain in pictures is for display only. The other bead in the picture is available separately.
