{"product_id":"the-desert-nugget-drop-necklace","title":"The Desert Nugget Drop Necklace","description":"\u003ch3\u003eSculptural Desert Blue Anchored in Solid Silver\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is an organic magnetism to raw, earth-born turquoise framed by cool precious metal. Cut from genuine turquoise mineral, each freeform pebble cabochon in this necklace displays its own singular fingerprint of golden-brown host-rock matrix—the geological signature left behind when copper-rich subterranean water crystallized within arid desert stone. Spanning between 12mm and 15mm in width—roughly the scale of a coffee bean—this pendant brings substantial visual presence to open necklines, crisp linen button-downs, and relaxed knitwear alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause turquoise is a porous, delicate mineral (Mohs 5–6), our workshop silversmiths complete all thermal metalwork prior to setting. The stone undergoes professional clear-resin stabilization to seal its microscopic pores against moisture and skin oils, preventing the color discoloration common to untreated stones. Suspended on a fluid, adjustable S925 sterling silver chain, you can customize the drop from a collarbone resting point to a relaxed princess neckline in seconds, while the balanced bail keeps the stone facing forward without tipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolid S925 Sterling Silver:\u003c\/strong\u003e Assay-verified 92.5% pure silver through the core—never silver-plated brass that wears down or discolors your skin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenuine Stabilized Turquoise:\u003c\/strong\u003e Naturally formed turquoise cabochon reinforced with clear polymer resin for lasting daily wear; never dyed howlite, magnesite, or synthetic resin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCalibrated Proportion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Freeform centerpiece measures 12mm to 15mm across, individually inspected under 10× magnification for structural security.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCustomizable Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e Adjustable S925 sterling silver chain provides versatile styling across multiple wardrobe necklines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSouthwestern-Inspired Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e Independently crafted contemporary silhouette celebrating desert geology with complete origin and material honesty.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLast On, First Off Care:\u003c\/strong\u003e Put on after applying perfume and cosmetics, remove before showering or swimming, and polish gently with the included microfiber cloth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGuarantee:\u003c\/strong\u003e Backed by the Awareness Avenue Lifetime Warranty.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Awareness Avenue Jewelry LLC","offers":[{"title":"S925 Sterling Silver \/ Adjustable","offer_id":68119165043052,"sku":"YLQ50361-s925-sterling-silver-adjustable","price":373.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14K White Gold \/ Adjustable","offer_id":68119165075820,"sku":"YLQ50361-14k-white-gold-adjustable","price":3020.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18K White Gold \/ Adjustable","offer_id":68119165108588,"sku":"YLQ50361-18k-white-gold-adjustable","price":3739.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1559\/9679\/files\/0001-2888454883055774472.jpg?v=1794215220","url":"https:\/\/www.awareness-avenue.com\/en-canada\/products\/the-desert-nugget-drop-necklace","provider":"Awareness Avenue Jewelry LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
