Circa 1950s King Solomon Stone Sterling Pendant/Brooch

Gorgeous vintage brooch featuring an authentic teardrop-shaped Eilat stone (also known as King Solomon stone). Its lovely mix of blue-green tones comes from the stone's mixture of secondary copper minerals, including malachite, azurite, turquoise, and chrysocolla. Set in an ornate sterling silver frame with delicate filigree-style detailing, this piece can be worn as a statement necklace or as a brooch, thanks to the dual bail and pin-back construction. Active mining of Eilat stone has ceased, making it increasingly rare and valuable as it can only be sourced from old stock or private collections. DIMENSIONS: Approx. 1.25" W x 1.5" H CONDITION: Excellent vintage condition - stone intact (no chips or cracks) METAL: Sterling silver (marked Made in Israel 925) STONES: Eilat stone (aka, King Solomon stone) 📦 VVS: Fast shipping, thoughtful packaging, always authentic
