Ammonite Carving Pendant in 950 Silver with Blue Labradorite | Rocas & Cristales

Exclusivity & Design — Ammonite Carving Pendant with Blue Labradorite: Hand-forged in 950 silver at the Rocas & Cristales atelier in Córdoba, Argentina, this one-of-a-kind pendant is carved directly from a single piece of blue labradorite into the coiled form of an ammonite — a hand-carving technique that lets the natural stone itself become the entire composition, rather than a stone set within a separate frame.

Aesthetic Details — Ammonite Carving Pendant with Blue Labradorite: The ammonite's coiled silhouette is carved by hand along the natural planes of the stone, so that labradorescence — the stone's hallmark play of blue and green light — travels the spiral in flashes as the piece catches the light. The result reads as much as a small sculpture as it does a pendant, its form quietly echoing the fossil record of an ancient marine creature, and it settles easily into both everyday wear and more considered occasions.

Craftsmanship & Shipping — Ammonite Carving Pendant with Blue Labradorite: Every Rocas & Cristales piece is hand-forged in our Córdoba, Argentina studio, where setting, polishing, and quality control are carried out entirely by hand. Each piece ships with a quality guarantee and complimentary worldwide shipping.

Natural Stone Properties — Ammonite Carving Pendant with Blue Labradorite: Labradorite was first identified in 1770 on the Labrador Peninsula in Canada, though the stone in this piece is sourced from Madagascar, one of its principal deposits today. Its signature optical effect, labradorescence, arises as light diffracts across internal layers of the feldspar structure, releasing flashes of blue, gold, and green that Inuit legend describes as the aurora borealis captured within stone. Linked to both the crown and third eye chakras, labradorite is regarded in stone-healing traditions as a guardian of intuition and transformation, holding particular affinity for Scorpio, Sagittarius, and Leo. Because each carving is worked from a single specimen chosen for the strength and placement of its labradorescence, the exact pattern of color that surfaces across the finished piece cannot be fully anticipated until the final polish, which is part of why no two carvings in this series ever read quite the same way. Many who wear labradorite describe it as a quiet companion for moments of change, a stone meant to be handled and returned to rather than simply observed.
