A PERSONAL WORD:

THE NECKLACE:

A necklace of this magnitude needs no introduction ,since it speaks for itself.. It is beyond stunning, beyond sophisticated & extremely elegant and breathtakingly beautiful, while at the same time making you look AND feel like a million bucks! It's very signature Federico, who put a load of “WOW FACTOR” in this extraordinary necklace.

Designed in a 21 panel Cleopatra theme, this masterpiece is made with all natural, gem quality/high grade cuts of Sleeping Beauty Turquoise that came from the late “LARRY COOLEY’S” collection(Click on “About the Artist” category to learn more about the amazing collection Larry had!!) And since this Arizonan mine closed down some years back, you just can’t get this type of quality any longer without paying a top dollar price.{Reflected in price}

It's beyond impressive the way this was designed, especially when you look at ALL that cluster work that went into it & then looking at the size of each & every one of those little round cabochons, you have to just think how many painstaking hours, weeks, month’s it takes to actually finish something like this.. Each one of the stones were hand picked for their color and size so that each panel is the same size throughout. to ensure then that the necklace lays flawlessly along the neckline like a well made necklace should..It's a very uniform design where the balance & form is impeccable!

Excluding the large centerpiece, there are 10 panels per side, where it’s designed with 5 triple designed cluster panels that measure 3-1/8” long to 2 double tier cluster panels that measure 1-7/8” long, down to 3 double tier cluster panels that measure 1-5/8” long that lead you to the closure.(See photo 12) The closure is unique to Federico, where when you push down on the 3 cabs of Sleeping Beauty, it then opens the closure.. When closed, they act as part of the design.{See photos 21,22,23}

Contributing to it’s just shy 1 POUND weight, is the amount of sterling that each stone is set atop of. The weight may scare some,but the way it’s designed, has a lot to do with it’s comfort, since as I said earlier, it’s because of the design that allows it to lay flawlessly and very comfortably!

This is undoubtedly THE necklace you want to wear for any party you may host, for any black tie event, for any runway spectacular, video production, or stage show. However, most importantly, it is perfect for the moments when you genuinely wish to feel like ROYALTY, showcasing to the world your exquisite taste and appreciation for fine jewelry! And if you have a little Liz Taylor or Cleopatra in you, then this would be the perfect choice! There was only one of these made & can only be found here at Plata de Santa Fe Jewelry, where you get nothing but the finest Federico jewelry!

But please realize that all monitors are different, so the materials can look brighter (or duller) from one computer to the next.

Even though this is a large necklace, ,pictures tend to make the item look much more larger & everything is more magnified than in actuality. .So to get an accurate idea of how big this is, please either check it out being worn to get a rough idea (photos ) or you can pull out a tape measure & compare to my given measurements listed above.
