love necklace

Like a twinkling star seen in the dying daylight, this teardrop-shaped pendant with a starburst design from India's Babun Dey subtly glints and gleams; it hangs from a rolo chain necklace with a lobster claw clasp. The sterling silver's finish composed of brightly shimmering and darkly oxidized tones sets off a motif filled with braid work and small beads. In the middle is a cabochon composite turquoise stone in a bezel setting.

Twinkling like golden sunshine, five faceted citrine gemstones surround a square of composite turquoise set in sterling silver in this cross pendant necklace. Shanker of India designs this lovely handcrafted necklace.

Hanzi are characters used in Chinese writing. As early as the sixth century A.D., many of these characters began to be simplified and adopted into Japanese writing, where they're known as kanji, a term that is more widely used in the West. Artisans in Yiwu, China, create these pendants by using sterling silver and the lost-wax casting method. Each character emulates the sweeping brushstrokes of traditional calligraphy. Choose based on birth month, favorite color, or simply the symbol that resonates with you most.
