Iris necklace pendant in 9ct yellow gold with aventurine quartz boule (12mm). The petals of the Iris flowers on a lacquer pot inspired this pendant. From the Journey to Japan.
The pendant, including loop, measures approximately 25mm in length.
The pendant is shown here on a Belcher light chain.

Iris
Japanese paintings often depict Irises or you may find them lacquered on cabinets. It was these designs that I saw on my travels to Japan that inspired my Iris necklace pendant - the small gold tips echoing the fine points at the ends of the flowers.
Yellow Gold
Gold is a metal that Cassandra loves to work with, it takes a wonderful pátina with time. Cassandra has the skill of knowing which carat, strength and durability of gold to use, where stone setting is concerned, so that jewels last and look beautiful for generations. Sourcing gold and other metals responsibly from people who have the same ethical vision as herself is particularly important, and she encourages transformations from old unworn jewels in to new sparkling pieces. When receiving jewels from Cassandra Goad, you can be assured that only the highest quality gold is being used.
If you would like to have this design crafted bespoke for you in another metal - silver, white or rose gold - please contact us and we will be delighted to make this for you.
