Spoon Cross Pendant on Chunky Turquoise Howlite Choker Necklace - ARGOSY- #6065

Four spoons. One story.
Chunky turquoise howlite meets a spoon cross pendant forged from four vintage silverware handles—each cut, shaped, and united in the Argosy pattern. This bold choker length necklace blends style, history and handmade goodness into a lovely whole creation - perfect for those drawn to the past and inspired by the present.

The cross pendant began as four vintage silverware handles. Each spoon handle was cut, shaped, and carefully married together by hand to create this striking, one‑of‑a‑kind piece.

The necklace itself is built from large turquoise howlite chunk beads, paired with 6mm and 4mm silverplate spheres and finished with a silverplate link chain. The chain is accented with additional beads and offers extra length so you can clasp it exactly where it feels right.

And just to be clear — this is an actual HANDmade silverware creation, not a cast replica. Every bead has been hand‑strung in house, every detail touched by human hands.

Typically, the crosses are handmade by Matt and strung on a howlite necklace by Jen. This particular cross was made after Matt had hand surgery, so this is Jen's first cross. It did not come together quite as nicely as Matt's do, but it was still so pretty. So, price on this one is reflective of it's variability.

For all of our designs we choose wonderful authentic vintage/antique silverware. Once chosen, the pieces are modified and beautified by HAND; they are cut, drilled, filed and polished, etc. We do not cast/mold any of our designs, they are all handmade, one-of-a-kind creations. All of our creations are handmade - as such no two items are exactly alike.   

Condition: Please note, this is an antique item that was once used as a utensil. As a result, there may be some wear to the silver-plate, fine scratches or marks from use. But some wear gives the piece patina and personality. We do our best to disclose any condition issues of note.
