The design evolved from Venetian masquerade masks and developed into a wearable pendant. The eyes have been carved out, enabling the colour of the garment worn underneath to show through. Black agate beads allow the wearing length to suit.
This is premium black jade from Cowell in South Australia. It is a very consistent stone in structure and takes a high polish.
