I adore this necklace so much. The gold flower is made from reclaimed gold I alloyed from 22k down to 14k. Then I hammered and rolled it with a rolling mill into sheet, from which I then sawed it out. It was a process. The small salt-n-pepper diamond is about .05 carats and has a whitish hue in some light and a grey hue in other light. See all the photos to get a better sense of it. Regarding the diamond's source, here is what the seller told me: "From mines in the Democratic Republic of Congo (Kimberley compliant) and polished at our certified fair trade factory in Surat, India."
This necklace is fabulous for layering, or perfect on its own. The 14K chain is suuuuuper dainty- that's the look I was going for. Wear with care and/or save it for date night out if you have a small child who likes to grab necklaces!
Measurements: The entire pendant including the bail is approximately 9mm long by 7mm wide. The chain is 17.25" long. Everything is 14 karat gold, except the clasp, which is 10 karat.
Necklace comes wrapped in an eco-friendly gift box.
