The story of the design
This rhodolite garnet pendant is centered on a pear-shaped stone with a deep red-purple tone, creating a strong and defined focal point. The shape gives the pendant a natural drop and direction when worn.
A halo of red sapphires surrounds the center, intensifying the overall color with a bright red layer that frames the garnet closely. White zircon accents add contrast, sharpening the outline and introducing small flashes of light that break up the deeper tones.
The bail is structured and set with a vertical row of red sapphires, adding a second focal element above the center stone. This detail continues the color upward and gives the pendant a more complete, balanced look.
Finished in two-tone rhodium over sterling silver, black rhodium deepens the surrounding areas to enhance the richness of the red stones, while white rhodium keeps the zircon and metal surfaces bright and defined. Red sapphire prong tips tie the design together with subtle detail.
The result is a pendant focused on layered red tones, combining depth, contrast, and a clean halo structure in a balanced layout.
