Malachite Pendant – Argentium Silver Rectangle
Description
This Malachite rectangle pendant features a bold geometric form built around a natural malachite stone. I set the stone into solid Argentium silver, allowing the strong green pattern to remain the focus. The rectangular shape gives the pendant a clear, architectural presence.
Design & Feel
The STRUCTURE design group emphasizes clean lines and confident form. In this piece, the straight edges of the silver frame the organic banding of the malachite. That contrast creates balance between precision and natural movement. As a result, the pendant feels bold, grounded, and intentional. It sits flat and has a substantial, sculptural feel when worn.
Argentium Heat & Finish
I work this pendant in Argentium silver and heat-treat the piece to activate the germanium oxide layer. This step increases hardness and slows tarnish. I then refine the surfaces so the silver remains crisp and clean against the stone.
