A bold, graphic, late-vintage pendant, modeled in 18k yellow gold, whose rectangular frame holds a modern-feeling likeness of the Matterhorn, the famous pyramidal mountain in the Swiss Alps. This pendant isthoughtfully carved and beautifully finished— its frame and hanging bail are polished, while the mountain's "facets" feature directional textures and a contrasting matte finish.For us, this pendant is evocative of the phrase“Lord, Don’t Move the Mountain,” so it calls to mind Mahalia Jackson's moving version of that song.Perhaps you've visited the Matterhorn, or maybe the idea of overcoming obstaclesinspires you.This pendant is easy to wear, andvery coolanyway you look at it. This is marked 750 for fineness and with avery small,diamond-shaped maker's cartouche.
