Padparadscha Sapphire, 925 Sterling Silver Pendant, SP020

Created Padparadscha Sapphire—firelight without the five-figure price tag. I’m neither so rich nor snooty that I have to have real stones all the time. Our Created Padparadscha Sapphire is molecularly the same as the stuff that comes from the ground—but tons cleaner, with way better color. Oh, and it’s affordable. If you happen to want a matching pair that’s real and of similar quality, I can get ’em for you—but it’ll run at least $3–4,000 extra. ’Nuff said. So what is Padparadscha Sapphire? It’s basically a bright orange sapphire from the mining district of Padparadscha, India. That mine’s essentially played out now, but 20 years ago it was producing stones with the most amazing play of red and yellow fire. We’ve got a source for Created Sapphire with the same awesome color attributes—and for a ton less money. This 10x8mm Created Padparadscha Sapphire weighs in around 3.3 carats and is set into a sturdy 4-prong Sterling Silver basket—nice and heavy—that lets the stone do its thing. Accented by a clear, sparkly CZ at the bail for just a touch of brilliance. We cast our own mountings and never use flimsy “snap-tight” stuff. It allows the most show of stone for the least expense in silver. A good stable setting that doesn’t set you back a month just to get one. Crafted in solid .925 Sterling Silver, specially alloyed to be highly tarnish-resistant, the metal stays bright and beautiful with minimal upkeep. Since it's still 92.5% pure silver, it qualifies as Sterling Silver—just better. A brilliant pick for birthdays, anniversaries, Valentine’s, Christmas, Mother’s Day, or just because. Backed by a full one-year workmanship warranty and a 30-day unconditional guarantee—return it for any reason, no questions asked. Make her day—heck, make her year. ______________________________________________________________________ BTW, Since we make this from scratch after you order it, we have a lot of flexibility.
