Description
A Chrysanthemum motif is in the centre of the Petal pendant with three small diamonds.
The pendant, sweet as it is, has a fallen petal and a Chrysanthemum motif in pure gold. It is a talisman with more meaning than just an object; some say it has magic powers and brings good luck; let’s hope so.
The decorative border around the pendant is Multigrain. It is a decorative feature favoured in antiquity and now in modern jewellery. The tool used forms tiny beads, often around a setting or border.
Pure silver and pure gold fuse together to form a permanent bond. The term for this process is Fusion. The metals must be close to the melting point, and pressure must be applied for the metals to bond. The melting point is when the metals are almost cherry red. Subsequently, the foil may melt without pressure and form a ‘blob’ rather than a permanent bond. In this case, the two metals, in this case, are pure gold and pure silver. This technique requires patience and skill; timing is crucial as the metal colour judges the temperature.
The sweet little pendant is the perfect gift. Have fun wearing this Petal pendant with diamonds. It is a treasure.
