Romantic and distinctly retro, this moonstone pendant pairs the raw simplicity of silver with the stone's gentle, boho spirit. The very big cabochon catches the light and answers with a blue flash that shifts across its surface with every turn of the head. Jewellers of old associated moonstone with intuition, peace of mind and meditation, lending this piece a warm, symbolic depth. At 7.1 grams, the pendant has a presence you can feel without it ever weighing on the neckline.

The stone for this pendant was hand-selected, with each piece examined for clarity and the intensity of its flash, which is why the price stays reasonable despite the high quality. Silver and good natural stones rise in price year after year, and stones with such a pronounced flash are becoming harder to find, so buying a pendant like this now makes sense price-wise. The setting is refined silver 925 of European quality, a pure alloy free of nickel and other allergenic additives, so the pendant can be worn without worrying about skin irritation. The metal is stamped with the French maker's mark - a legally protected mark registered at the French assay office, which attests to the silver's origin.

For office wear, this pendant pairs well with a smooth shirt under a blazer in muted grey or navy - the shirt collar reveals the chain, and the stone's blue flash draws the eye without disrupting the outfit's calm character. In the evening it suits a simple dress with an open neckline, where the cabochon gets even more room to shine. The pendant's boho character also works well with a linen shirt and natural fabrics, and its vintage form makes the moonstone look as if it were found rather than bought.
