Late 1960's Handmade Silver Twist Link Chain and Eilat Stone Bubble Pendant Necklace
Late 1960's Handmade Silver Twist Link Chain and Eilat Stone Bubble Pendant Necklace
Perhaps a nod to well known jeweler Aaron Rubinstein, this wonderfully crafted modernist piece is a sight to behold. Delicate, yet bold, hand fabricated twist link and loop chain with a framed “bubble” motif pendant, complete with tube set Eilat stones. Pendant is removable so that the chain can be worn alone or with another pendant of your choosing.
Eilat is a semi-precious green-blue stone that is a mixture of several secondary copper minerals including Azurite, Chrysocolla, Malachite, and Turquoise. The Eilat Stone name (also ‘Ellat’ or ‘Elat’) derives from the Israeli city of Eilat where it was once mined. Also known as ‘The King Solomon Stone’, Eilat Stone is the national gemstone of Israel.
