The Solas Star Pendant

A celestial anchor.

Hand-sculpted in solid silver, the Solas Star is a weighted artifact designed to catch and hold the light.

The piece is built around a brilliant 8mm Iceflower-cut yellow Asscher CZ stone. Rather than a traditional setting, I hand-sculpt the eight points of the star to secure the stone, leaving the back open to allow sunlight to pull through the pavilion. The result is a soft, celestial glow that shifts as you move.

Each star is sculpted from raw silver clay and kiln-fired into solid .999 Fine Silver. With an integrated bail and a substantial weight of approximately 10 grams of pure silver, it is a piece designed to feel as significant as it looks.

A Note on Fine Silver

This piece is handcrafted from .999 pure fine silver, the purest form of silver available. Unlike most silver jewelry you may own, it is not rhodium plated or coated in any way. You are wearing solid, elemental metal exactly as it is.

Fine silver is an elemental metal. It may tarnish, develop a patina, or react to your environment at a rate that differs from plated or sterling silver pieces. Factors such as skin chemistry, humidity, lotions, soaps, and airborne compounds all influence how the metal responds. This is a natural characteristic of pure silver, not a defect.

Tarnish is easily removed at home using a polishing cloth, a baking soda paste, or a silver cleaning cream. Full care instructions are available here.

If you are unfamiliar with the properties of .999 fine silver, please take a moment to research the material before purchasing to confirm it is the right fit for you. By completing your purchase, you acknowledge that you understand these natural characteristics. Because each piece is made to order, please note that natural tarnishing and surface changes are not considered defects and are not covered under the custom order return policy.
