Starborn Nontronite Dragon Carving with Labradorite Accent Pendant in Sterling Silver

This pendant is hand-carved from rare Nontronite, sculpted into a finely detailed dragon whose form follows the stone’s natural texture and coloration. Accented with an oval Labradorite cabochon, the piece pairs the earthy, matte character of Nontronite with the subtle iridescence of labradorite, creating a striking contrast that is both refined and impossible to replicate.

The carving is set in solid 925 Sterling Silver and finished with ornate Bali-inspired filigree and traditional silver detailing. The richly worked metal adds depth and an Old-World character, framing the carving while allowing the stonework to remain the focal point.

Measuring approximately 2.15" long by 1.4" wide and weighing 135 carats (27 grams), this pendant has a substantial presence and unmistakable individuality. Its scale, material rarity, and expert craftsmanship place it firmly in collector territory.

Nontronite, first identified in Nontron, Dordogne, France, is an iron-rich clay mineral from the smectite group, known for its distinctive green to yellow-green hues and naturally fine-grained texture. Highly regarded by mineral collectors, it is prized as much for its geological significance as for its understated, organic beauty.

This pendant is one of a kind, and you will receive the exact piece shown—an exceptional example of rare material transformed into wearable art through masterful carving and refined silverwork.
