A shimmering relic of ancient seas, this handcrafted pendant captures the hypnotic spiral of an ammonite fossil—an extinct marine creature that swam the oceans over 65 million years ago. The design is carved in richly textured sterling silver, radiating out from a glowing Ethiopian opal set in the center like a drop of sunlight in stone.
Each piece is shaped in silver metal clay, fired in my home studio, and finished by hand to bring out the depth and detail of the ridged fossil form. The opal's natural flashes of green and gold echo the life and mystery that fossils still hold.
