Before choosing a direction.
How does a pendant differ from a complete necklace composition?
These pendant entries focus on a central jewelled composition carried on a silk cord. The Harlequin Pendant interlocks coloured stones and diamond rings; the Orchid Cascade Pendant arranges pink and purple sapphires among diamond leaves. Compare the suspended form with the continuous settings found in the necklace archive.
Can the cord and wearing length be part of a commission brief?
Yes. Include how high or low you want the pendant to sit and whether you have a preferred cord or chain direction. The atelier can discuss the suspension, proportions and practical construction for the proposed work.
Is the green stone in the Emerald & Gold Pendant definitively identified?
The detailed catalogue records “Oval Emerald / Tsavorite”. That wording should be retained rather than selecting one identity from the name alone. Ask the atelier for clarification before using the stone identity as a requirement for a new commission.
For pricing, materials and timing, read about the commission process and speak with the atelier about your own brief.
