Description: VINTAGE E&L ISRAEL STERLING SILVER ELECTROFORM HUGE TROPICAL HIBISCUS PENDANT on HAMMERED STERLING SILVER NECK COLLAR Runway-ready and quite the show-stopper! This stunning figural pendant is modeled as a huge tropical hibiscus flower. It was produced by the electroform method and therefore is lighter in weight than its appearance would suggest. Very comfortable to wear. The bale is shallow thereby allowing the pendant to lay flat. It will come on a hammered sterling silver neck collar which perfectly complements the pendant. It slides off easily so you can use it for any of your other pendants. E&L Is a bit of a frustration for lovers and collectors of Israeli electroform jewelry. They market their products on cards or with hang tags which, once removed, sometimes make the items difficult to identify. However, this is a known design of theirs and 100% attributable. It is very hard to find and I have to believe it had a limited production run. All eyes will be on you when you wear this ensemble. If you love bold, eye-catching jewelry then I can guarantee that you will be thrilled with this purchase! ABOUT ELECTROFORM: The electroform process is complicated but basically it involves designing and creating a template (mandrel), usually of wax. Layers of pure sterling silver are applied to the mandrel with electricity. When the electrostatic process is complete, the wax is drained out via a vent hole, leaving a silver casing over a hollow core. The resulting jewelry is therefore much lighter in weight than solid silver making it more comfortable to wear, especially with earrings. However, because the process is so lengthy and time-consuming, the prices for electroform jewelry are actually usually higher rather than lower when compared to solid silver. The finished product also has no seams which is desirable.HAPPY TO COMBINE SHIPPING
