Turquoise Pendant – Argentium Silver Twigs
I create this pendant in solid Argentium Silver 940. First, I form two silver twigs to frame the centre. Then I bezel-set a freeform natural turquoise between them. Balanced above the stone, I add a textured piece of silver bark. Finally, I attach a tube bail so a larger chain can pass through comfortably.
The organic elements layer naturally within the design. As a result, the turquoise appears grounded between branch and bark. Moreover, the vertical form gives the piece movement and presence. The structure reflects growth and resilience within the LIFE collection.
Design & Feel
This piece reflects nature in balance. The twigs suggest upward movement. In contrast, the bark texture adds strength and grounding. Together, they create harmony inspired by natural form.

Materials & Care
This piece is made in Argentium Silver 940. Argentium silver is brighter and harder than traditional sterling. In addition, it is nickel-free and slower to tarnish.

I fabricate the silver twigs and bark texture separately. Then I solder the structure together and refine the alignment. After that, I bezel-set the turquoise securely in place. Finally, I heat-treat the piece to increase strength and improve tarnish resistance.
