FEDERICO JIMENEZ -Spiderweb Turquoise Squares- Sleeping Beauty Cluster -Contemporary Sterling Squash Blossom Necklace
FEDERICO JIMENEZ -Spiderweb Turquoise Squares- Sleeping Beauty Cluster -Contemporary Sterling Squash Blossom Necklace
Designed with a unique-contemporary edge,this modern day Squash Blossom necklace was designed with a meticulous "eye for detail", where each square & each cluster of turquoise is so incredibly well matched in size & is designed where the dominant shape of the necklace are "squares".
But that's just one part that catches the eye!
The other is: If you zoom in,you will notice all the spider webbing that each have & how well they were picked for their matrix patterns,so the webbing they have, play a major role to this necklace.The turquoise comes from various mines & because of this,you will get this wonderful contrast of color that has a overall teal color..The webbing is pronounced and goes from black webbing,to brown & then some having this unique white,which the latter is something you rarely ever see!
Each square is set above 3 oval cuts of premium Sleeping Beauty turquoise that are all on the same sheet of sterling,so that when it's held vertically,they act as the outline,which gives this THE most amazing look!! Personally,this alone is what I find very appealing to this necklace..This was a well thought of,well designed piece that took some time & it's pretty obvious that this design was mastered by a "perfectionist"! It's different,it's super classy & was made with I would call,a "true" designer's eye!
The Naja is worked into the design with the same shaped cuts,but the turquoise doesn't come with all the webbing like the rest does.It does however,come with that same teal blue color that the smaller squares have.
Each are individually picked, not only for their unique character trait,but for their premium quality..For those who follow Federico's jewelry, know that just about anything that bares his hallmark,will come with some of the most amazing aesthetics,while some standing out more than others..This is one of those pieces..
