***********************

THE ARTIST:

I don't care what Al makes, because I know for a fact that whatever he makes, you can always be guaranteed it'll not only be made right, but you will always get the highest quality materials. He's one of my personal favorites & ranks high with me when it comes down to his impeccable workmanship

Blessed with a mathematical mind, Al is so skilled at what he does, so he knows what he's doing & why he's doing it. Everything gets taken into consideration when he sits down to create & never do you have to question how long he's has been at it, because you will see all of his skilled attributes through out. His trained eye for form & balance can always be noticed. He works in both gold & sterling & can make anything you put in front of him.. He can take it from the most traditional, to the most contemporary.

THE PENDANT:

When I look a this pendant,I feel like I'm going on a journey where you can see all the steps Al took to make this! The cross is actually made into 2 parts. One is the sheet sterling that is hand stamped & beautifully executed, while the chiseled corrugated oval center has been soldered atop of the cross & has a medallion vibe to it.In the center is a fabulous soft green cut of Fox Turquoise.

THE BALE:

The bale has roughly a 5/8" opening(14 mm) & is shown with a 13 mm Navajo Pearl necklace..I do want to mention that even though it has a 14 mm bale opening, you want to go smaller on the diameter of your necklace so the pendant can move & 'breathe'.. You can wear this with Navajo Pearls or even a leather cord! Professionally speaking, because of the crosses size, I would go no longer than a 24" long necklace. A 20" to 22" would be great!

*****I do not consider myself a 'professional photographer" but I do try to give you photos that are 'realistic" in color, just so you're not shocked, nor disappointed when you get the piece. I find photographing anything with 'yellow' in it, (orange, green) can come up a little more vivid than other colors, so please take this into consideration. Please understand that each monitor varies and also plays a role in how vibrant or less vibrant as something appears. *****
