Visions of the Southwestern desert abound within this necklace!
A piece of Treasure Mountain Turquoise, in a faded basil green, acts as the arm of a desert cactus. The Turquoise is topped with a pure silver flower as its crown. The center of the flower is a lovely Sterling Opal* that flashes shades of green, gold and orange - like the desert sun when it's low on the horizon.
- All of the sterling silver & pure silver has been oxidized** to enhance the texture. The pendant is strung on 18" of oxidized sterling silver chain and finished with a matching lobster clasp.
- One of a kind.
- *Sterling Opal is one of the only man-made gemstones that we use, but it is because they are quality made with the components found in nature & they are more durable than real opals. This seems to be important when making rings, because we are all a little tough on our hands.

- **Please note that oxidized sterling silver is still sterling silver. It just has a darkening patina that gives the jewelry a vintage look. Wear can happen over time but can be protected with proper care.
