An oval cabochon of golden-specked lapis lazuli demands a royal audience in this original pendant necklace from India's Neeru Goel. The artisan sets the deep blue stone in sterling silver, framing it with ornate beading and oxidized areas for dramatic contrast. The pendant is suspended from a sterling silver cable chain.
