Cultured Pearl Gold Plated Necklace, "Chenteño Diamond"
Inspired by the chenteño fretwork embroidery of San Vicente Coatlan in Oaxaca, Mexican artisan Mariana Barranco creates this gorgeous pendant necklace. She crafts the necklace of 14k gold-plated bronze, adding a white cultured pearl beneath the diamond-shaped pendant. A second pearl accents the clasp, which is engraved with the artisan's initials.
The name "chenteño" derives from "Chente," the affectionate nickname for Vicente, the town's patron saint.

"Gorgeous Birds of Fortune!"
I liked them as soon as I saw them online. But the photos don't do them justice. They are magnificent, very large, so well made, and much nicer in person! One of my favorites and I buy a lot of earrings at Novice:}
