This Purple Frost pendant necklace by Balinese artisan Wayan Asmana has a baroque style. Suspended from a thick naga chain, a gem-encrusted pendant becomes the focal point. The necklace is handcrafted from sterling silver and centered with a faceted amethyst gemstone that sparkles. The combination finish adds to the intricate design.
