This pendant is handcrafted and is one of my original jewelry designs.
It is made entirely of solid sterling silver, with each element meticulously hand-cut, shaped, and polished.  The pendant features a bezel-set stone in the shape of a crescent moon, made from genuine black onyx.
With the bail included, the total length is approximately 1.9 inches. It is approx. 1.2 inches wide.

***No chain included***
***Other necklaces in photo not for sale****

All of my jewelry designs are finished and polished by hand. I don't use any machinery in my finishing process. I feel this gives the piece a more personal touch. I try to stay true to the techniques of traditional silversmithing by doing it all by hand, without the use of any electrical tools.
My Maker's Mark 'ASA' is on the back of the pendant. It is also stamped "Sterling".

***This is a custom order, so please message me first if you need this for a specific date***
This is an original design by me - part of my ASA jewelry collection. Please check my store for more of my original jewelry designs.

 Onyx jewelry is worn to defend against negativity that is directed at you. Black stones have protective energies in the sense that black is the absence of light, and therefore, can be used to create invisibility.
Fortifies self-confidence and responsibility
Sharpens your senses
Encourages a healthy egotism

Black has been associated with regeneration and new beginnings. Black onyx is thought by some to have protective qualities, making it advantageous to carry when traveling. It is said to be useful in fighting basic fears and helping to move beyond bad relationships--as well as to heal old emotional wounds. The Romans associated onyx with courage, and it is thought to be useful when one is defending him/herself against unfair criticism.
