Oh my gosh!!! This is THE ONE!!! This is an absolutely breathtaking and unique, massive, mid-century, hand-carved, natural wood and sterling silver pendant in the style of the Venetian interpretation of African beauty. This colossal, 1960’s pendant is an intricate and elaborate sculpture of the head of an incredibly rendered, smiling, African stunner carved in rich, natural wood with sterling silver accents. And her smile – oh, her gentle and knowing smile – like she’s self-aware and confident of the enormous power and unique beauty she possesses.

This gorgeous, solid, jet-black ebony colored wood pendant is HUGE and yet so masterfully fashioned. She wears dangling hoop earrings, an ornately scroll and braid base and an ornately scroll and braid topper cap, all in sterling silver! This is the must-have to add to your Blackamoor collection. She shows virtually no imperfections, if any, except for possibly the very minor ones from the initial, delicate carving process which are sometimes within the nature of hand-sculpted wood jewelry and are undetectable by casual observation but can be visible under a magnifier and/or a camera. Remember that Blackamoor pendants are carved by hand and this piece is 60+ years old! The sterling silver accents on this pendant will probably require a light polishing, if desired.
