Cast from a real peregrine falcon talon using the lost wax process, this pendant captures the original form exactly — every joint, angle, and hooked point preserved in recycled sterling silver. The tip is finished in 23.5K gold applied via keum-boo — an ancient Korean gilding technique that bonds gold directly to silver through heat and pressure. It does not peel. It does not fade.

Set with a [X mm] tanzanite cabochon. Tanzanite is a blue-violet zoisite found only near Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania — one of the rarest gemstone deposits on earth by geographic concentration, first discovered in 1967. It's trichroic, meaning it shifts between blue, violet, and burgundy depending on the angle of light. The cabochon cut keeps the surface smooth, letting that shift move across the dome rather than break into facets. Against gold and darkened silver, it holds.

The peregrine falcon dives faster than any other animal on earth — not speed without purpose, but precision. It sees the opening before others register it. This pendant carries that quality: sharp perception, decisive movement, vision that doesn't hesitate.
