Centering this pendant necklace is a composite stone: a triplet of rock crystal, mother-of-pearl and lapis. The color combination, shine and luster created via this combination is truly unique. It's encased in 18K gold and strung from a slim chain that can be adjusted to sit at slightly different lengths.
IPPOLITA's 18K gold combines pure gold and silver in a nickel-free alloy, giving it a cooler, more nuanced tone informed by ancient and Renaissance metalwork.
IPPOLITA's sterling silver is 925 finished in a layer of 99.9% pure silver, hand-polished to a mirror finish and resistant to tarnish.
Every Rock Candy stone is faceted by hand over ten hours, its large, deliberately irregular cuts following the veins and color already in the material rather than correcting them.
