Vtg Art Deco Arts & Crafts Natural Sodalite Sterling Silver Pendant Necklace
24″ with pendant dropping another 2 7/8″ below. Sterling silver, natural sodalite. Why You’ll Love It. In this, Arts & Crafts pendant, the organic beauty of the stone sits front and center. Set in sterling silver, the bold tear-drop shaped sodalite pendant, with its distinctive marbled patterning and vivid blue hue, was carefully selected just for this piece. With the delicate floral and leaf silver detailing on the bail and paperclip chain-its elongated silhouette gets a touch of nature’s charm. Bright patina with minimal surface wear to the setting. Fresh sheen, light surface wear, and no chipping on the sodalite. Chain is original to pendant. On the Arts & Crafts Movement. The Arts and Crafts period emerged at the turn of the century as a reaction against the industry and machinery that had begun to infiltrate culture, arts, and design. Proponents of the Arts and Crafts Movement argued true art and true craftsmanship must be done by an artisan, not by a machine or by an assembly line of people. They believed that the original creative endeavor of an individual artisan would bring its own distinct pleasure, not only to the working class makers but to the person wearing it. _gsrx_vers_1608 GS 9.5 (1608).
