The Sydney Abalone Sterling Silver Necklace
The Sydney Abalone Sterling Silver Necklace
Why is this piece called The Sydney, you ask?
Years ago while dealing with burnout in my real estate finance career, an opportunity to travel with a friend to Australia and New Zealand presented itself. It was a crazy idea that I really didn't have the money for but it was ultimately one of the best things I've ever done. And while I was in Sydney near the Opera House, I came across a metalsmith selling jewelry. She had a circular statement abalone pendant which I bought and still have and treasure. My version is an homage to that original Australian pendant as well as that trip. If a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that speaks to your soul ever presents itself to you, whatever it is, "take the trip".
