Turquoise & Gold-Tone Necklace

Its centre of gravity is the turquoise, a blue-to-green stone, usually opaque, often carrying a darker matrix web across the surface. As a shape it is a hanging piece that sits at the collarbone. It belongs to Lhasa Moments, a series built around highland light, stone colour and architectural lines.

A short account of the materials, taken in the order they matter to the design. Turquoise — an opaque blue-green stone, with a darker matrix webbing that shifts piece to piece. Day to day, being soft and slightly porous, it prefers to be kept clear of hard contact.

We ask for a measurement rather than offering a generic size, and confirm the finished fit in writing. If two options are close, say how you plan to wear the piece and we will say which one suits it better. Balance is a personal intention carried at the wrist, not an effect the materials produce. Bead tone, matrix and grain will not repeat exactly from one piece to the next, and that is normal. The selected piece, its measurements and the preparation window are confirmed in writing before you pay.

Care

Keep it away from perfume, sunscreen, soap and household cleaners, none of which the stone tolerates well. Avoid soaking it, and keep perfume and household cleaners off the surface. Put it on last and take it off first, and keep it in its own pouch between wears.
