The deep green of the peridot catches the eye at first glance. The faceted cut breaks light into small glints that shift in intensity with every movement of the head. The pendant has a minimalist form - a simple bail and a slender silhouette let the stone remain the main focus of the composition, with no unnecessary detail around it.

The stone for this piece was chosen so that the colour and clarity of the peridot are even, giving the whole a calm, uniform character. Good stones are becoming harder to find, and silver has risen in price in recent years, so buying at this price makes sense today. Rhodium plating protects the silver from tarnishing and blackening, so the pendant needs less everyday cleaning. Refined European silver has a high alloy purity, confirmed by the 925 fineness. The piece is stamped with the French maker's mark, registered with the French assay office, which vouches for the origin of the metal.

This pendant works well in a total-black outfit - a black top with an open neckline or a fitted turtleneck creates a backdrop against which the stone's green glow stands out immediately. In such a combination the pendant acts as a point of light along the neckline and needs no other jewellery nearby. Its minimalist form suits the office just as well as an evening out, when you want to keep things simple while making a strong colour statement. One well-chosen piece of jewellery is enough to give the whole look character.
