Axiom (ˈaksēəm) Greek.
An axiom or postulate is a premise or starting point of reasoning. As classically conceived, an axiom is a premise so evident as to be accepted as true without controversy. From the Greek: 'that which is thought worthy or fit' or 'that which commends itself as evident.'
The bail is silver-plated brass with a lacquer finish to protect it and to minimize tarnishing. The pendant can be purchased alone or with a companion chain. The optional sterling silver snake chain (made in Italy) is a sturdy, elegant, and comfortable chain. It's rhodium-coated to prevent tarnish and has a diameter of 1.2mm. It is available in 16" and 18".
NOTE: The dichroic glass used in this design varies somewhat. In other words, may not look exactly like the photo! Also, this item is for pendant only. Earrings displayed can be purchased separately.
The BRIGHT MOSAIC line is like mosaic work -- an assemblage of different-colored, different-shaped glass is arranged and fired together to become one piece. The pendants and earrings are then selectively cut from this mosaic sheet and fired again to make the final piece. Dichroic and patterned glass are used in combination with solid colored glass to add some brightness and sparkle to the piece.
