A closer look
This is a long, substantial beaded necklace, a sweater-length chain built around an oversized round turquoise cabochon as its focal point. The main stone is natural turquoise from Chile, displaying the distinctive robin's-egg blue-green coloration associated with that locality. Its surface is a soft, milky pale green-blue with a matte to low-gloss polish rather than a dense porcelain-like finish, and it is cut in a large, generously sized circular slab, noticeably bigger than typical turquoise cut for jewelry. Across the face of the stone run organic streaks and webbing of golden-brown, tan and rust-colored host-rock matrix, concentrated in irregular diagonal bands and patches, along with a few small dark charcoal-black mineral flecks near the upper edge. The matrix lines are fine, naturally feathered, and give the surface a marbled, painterly variation rather than a uniform field of color.
The stone is enclosed in an intricate hand-beaded bezel rather than a metal setting. On the front face, the turquoise disc is framed by concentric rows of tiny champagne-gold and silver-toned seed beads interlocked with larger faceted metallic beads in a dark gunmetal-silver finish, each of them catching light along multiple flat facets to form a continuous sparkling halo. The beadwork sits slightly proud of the stone's rim, creating a raised, textured border with a knitted or woven appearance, dense and even in spacing, with the seed beads tightly packed so the underlying structure is invisible. The overall silhouette of the framed pendant is circular, near-symmetrical, with a slightly hand-worked irregularity to the outer bead edge.
The reverse side is finished with a completely different and equally elaborate bead arrangement, so both faces of the pendant are designed to be seen. A ring of turquoise-colored seed beads in a brighter, more saturated sky-blue sits just inside an outer perimeter of the dark faceted metallic beads,
