{"product_id":"mario-madrid-southwest-style-sterling-silver-turquoise-pendant-removable-bail","title":"MARIO MADRID Southwest Style Sterling Silver \u0026 Turquoise Pendant Removable Bail","description":"This fabulous vintage sterling silver statement pendant by the late New Mexican artist Mario Madrid (1961–2021) is a striking example of his bold and imaginative silversmithing. The centerpiece is a gorgeous blue turquoise cabochon with a rich chocolate brown matrix, possibly from the Number 8 Mine or high-grade Royston, beautifully bezel set and framed with fine twist wire. Surrounding the stone are dimensional five-point stars mounted on flat silver discs, creating a dramatic celestial design with exceptional depth and texture. The pendant offers outstanding versatility with both a shepherd's hook for hanging from beaded necklaces or paperclip chains and a removable stamped bail that accommodates single or multi-strand beads up to a combined diameter of 20 millimeters. Mario Madrid's hallmark is stamped just below the shepherd's hook, making this an exceptional collector's piece by one of New Mexico's most admired artists.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePLEASE NOTE: the multi-strand sterling bead necklace from Sunwest Silver and the 8mm sterling silver burnished beads by Marilyn Platero are NOT included in this purchase.
