Ambiguous Neckpiece

An interplay of pattern and playfulness, the contemporary Ambiguous Pendant from jewelry artist Bette Barnett is composed of layered, perforated steel sheets, each punctuated with circular patterns ranging from small pinholes to larger openings. The overlapping patterns create a sense of movement and depth, inviting the eye to wander. Fused accents of 18 Karat gold, rose bronze, white bronze and copper, and 18 Karat gold add contrast to the steel's dark patina. A vibrant red Rosarita stone anchors the unique composition of the one-of-a-kind pendant with a jolt of vivid color, offering a focal point amidst the textured complexity.
