I was inspired to create this necklace by the beautiful architecture of ancient cathedral buildings with their sweeping arches and archaic stone texture. I made this necklace from solid sterling silver that I formed, shaped and textured. The delicate 'arch' is attached to the necklace by a hand-forged hinge or 'pinned' setting. The hinge setting is so fun and satisfying to play or twiddle with--the perfect beautiful and minimal accessory to keep your fingers busy.
Chain Style: Round Rolo Chain. This necklace features a Round Rolo Chain. The links that make up Rolo Chain are created from semi-round wire so that each link is wider than the wire thickness. This style of chain is heavy duty and can stand up to a lot of wear and tear, while still retaining a delicate and minimal look.
These necklaces were created for my JULY 27th 2020, 12:00 PM Central Standard Time Cathedral Collection Release!
