The Black Pearl 3D Necklace is part of a collection of my one of a kind enamel jewelry pendants.
Like all of my pieces, this Black Pearl 3D necklace is the result of dedicated studies of cloisonné and its techniques.
I’ve traveled the world in pursuit of my art. This has allowed me to have vast experiences living in a tropical oasis most people can only dream of. Though many love the white sandy beaches and balmy temperatures, I found my muse in the color and rustling of the banana leaves. After sketching a few designs, I decided to sculpt these leaves into the shape of a beautiful, bell-shaped Tahitian flower = Black Pearl 3D Necklace.
But it’s not the design that sets this enamel pendant apart. The Black Pearl 3D Necklace was creating after years of experimenting. It was truly a challenge and something I had never seen. This is because jewelers solder their choice metals to achieve dimension and that’s something vitreous enamels can not tolerate. Eventually, I found a way to overcome this way of construction, by fusing the materials together to create a 3D Enamel Pendant! After many hours attempting to fuse fine silver with the 22k lower rim and top rim, I finally solve the mystery. Then the finishing touches were placed on this one-of-a-kind pendant.
Perfect for the tropical-island lover in your life, Black Pearl 3D Pendant is the type of high-end jewel you’ll only get from a cloisonné master.
