Alberta Sterling Silver Necklace - 16-18"

Thank you for your wonderful years of support. After much thought and consideration, I will miss design, but I am still doing custom pieces and look forward to my next exciting adventure. At this time, I will be moving to my next phase in life and no longer selling my jewelry.

~ Wendy Culpepper

Materials Sterling Silver
Finish Oxidized / Antiqued
Clasp Lobster Claw Clasp
Length Options Adjustable 16-18 inches
Gemstones Spinel, Tourmalinated Quartz

This substantial necklace makes a really bold statement. I love the dramatic color combination of the black spinel beaded with the uniquely striated tourmalinated quartz. Accented with a large 925 silver “Albert” hoop, we’ve renamed this semi precious gemstone version “Alberta” for its feminine, yet daring look.

My roots as a small town Floridian became apparent in my first collection. While designing, I found myself wanting to give texture to my metal - not just any texture, but texture reminiscent of an alligator pattern. As my model making continued, I found I strayed from my initial idea, a common theme for me, and soon developed a new pattern. I realized it reminded me of little footprints, so I kept the alligator theme. Apparently, the Floridian who was raised on University Florida Gator football, saw a few alligators in her time, and became a UF 'gator' herself didn't stray far from her roots.
Since tarnishing is caused by oxidation of the metal when the silver comes in contact with the air, keep your jewelry in its anti-tarnish bag, or in a fairly airtight container like a velvet-lined jewelry box. Also, your natural body oils will help keep the jewelry clean so remember to wear it!! If the jewelry does begin to tarnish, lightly scrub the surface with a thick paste of baking soda and water using a soft bristled toothbrush. If the tarnish is more severe, use a silver polishing cloth on the surface. Do NOT dip oxidized silver in polishes or creams because they will remove the black oxidization of the design.
