Multi-Strand Faceted Turquoise and Sterling Silver Drop Necklace

This sophisticated three-strand necklace features a combination of faceted briolette-cut turquoise drops and smooth round turquoise beads. The innermost strand highlights a single large center drop, while the middle and outer strands feature graduated bib-style arrangements of faceted droplets. The stones exhibit a range of natural blues and greens, with some visible matrix characteristic of genuine turquoise. The briolettes are meticulously faceted, creating a sparkling effect that contrasts with the smaller, dark teal-colored round spacer beads. The necklace is constructed on fine jewelry wire or thread, likely terminating in sterling silver findings such as a lobster or decorative clasp. The craftsmanship is high-quality, evident in the uniform graduation of the stones and the precise spacing of the beads. The style suggests a modern interpretation of Southwestern or bohemian jewelry, likely produced within the last 10-20 years. The condition appears excellent with no visible chips to the facets or frayed stringing. The use of sterling silver for structural components identifies it as fine artisanal jewelry rather than costume ware.
