With its striking design, Polly Wales has used her unorthodox method jewelry making to create this exquisite one-of-a-kind necklace. Each of the rainbow sapphires has been directly cast into the 18K yellow gold resulting in a perfectly imperfect disc encrusted with vibrant gems and a subtly eroded edge. Most of the sapphires show their surfaces while others remain buried in the gold or barely peek out. The disc pendant spins from the hole in its center as it hangs from the 18K yellow gold chain.

total length : 21" : 18K yellow gold
18K yellow gold and sapphire pendant : just over 1/2" diameter
sapphires : vary : .5mm to 3mm diameter
18K yellow gold 's' clasp closure

LOS ANGELES - Polly Wales studied Fine Art Sculpture before following her passion for jewelry and retraining at the Royal College of Art. Combining her skills as a sculptor, her love of traditional casting methods and her craftsmanship, she began to create one-of-a-kind pieces of jewelry. Using sapphires, rubies and diamonds cast directly into rich gold, the end masterpieces resemble natural gem encrusted forms or sparkling geodes split open. This unorthodox approach to jewelry design has created a new and exciting niche in the world of fine jewelry design.
