NATURAL FASCINATING BISMUTH SET IN STERLING SILVER PENDANT ON STERLING CHAIN      

Bismuth is one of Mother Nature's more interesting elements and has long been set into beautiful pieces of jewellery. Bismuth is a crystalline white metal that carries with it the most fascinating of natural rainbow metallic iridescence. Apart from the beauty of the different colours and the rainbow like iridescence, it is also fascinating in its chemical structure - tightly stepped in a way that catches the light. It was utilised in ancient times by the Egyptians, Greeks, Asians, Romans and Chinese but only entered our modern world when "discovered" in 1753. This natural piece has been securely set into very solid sterling silver to create a protective frame. The pendant measures 4,1 cm (41 mm) long and is 18 mm wide. The side measurement is 15 mm. It comes on a 50 cm (500 mm) sterling silver chain and weighs 17,5 grams. Both the pendant and the chain are hallmarked 925 for sterling silver. For someone who likes conversation starting jewellery!
