Mountain Pendant – Argentium Silver
Description
Each mountain peak is handmade from solid Argentium silver. I melt the silver until it is almost liquid, shaping the peaks with a jeweller’s pick to form natural valleys and ridges. Once cooled, the silver is cleaned and refined into a smooth curved base.
Design & Feel
The mountains have a strong, grounded feel. The soft curves create natural flow. Each pendant forms in its own way — every piece is unique.
Argentium Heat & Finish
Because this pendant is made with Argentium silver, I heat-treat it to activate the germanium oxide layer. This step increases hardness and slows tarnish. I then give the piece a final polish for clarity and shine.
Size & Weight
• Length: 2.3–3.3 cm (0.90–1.30 in)
• Width: 1.7–2.8 cm (0.67–1.10 in)
• Weight: 2.1–4.7 grams
• Chain: 18″ sterling silver twisted box chain
Fit & Sizing
The tube bail fits most chains. The pendant hangs in a centered drop. It sits well on the chest and suits many necklines.
Materials & Care
Made with Argentium 940 silver — purer than sterling, tarnish-resistant, and nickel-free. Wipe with a soft cloth to keep the shine bright. Store in a dry place when not worn. Learn more:

Each mountain pendant begins with molten silver. I melt and shape each peak by hand, then file the base into a gentle curve. I form the outer ring, attach the tube bail, and finish the silver with heat and polish to preserve the texture and shine.
