Mint-green shapes drift across a dark matrix in Starmap’s Carico Lake variscite, like a landscape seen from above. Pale seafoam beads and open silver links carry that contrast around the neckline. This one-of-a-kind Caye necklace brings a distinctive focal point to a simple shirt, with a different texture on each side.

Handmade by René M. Bailey of Sun Salt Silver, the pendant hangs beneath the toggle ring, where individually hand-knotted beads meet oval silver links. The stone’s mint-green pattern and dark matrix give this particular necklace its own map of color.

Care: Keep away from water, perfume, lotions, and ultrasonic cleaners. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth and store flat or loosely coiled.

Materials

Each Sun Salt Silver piece is handcrafted using sterling and fine silver with natural stones chosen for their character, color, and story.

I work primarily with turquoise, opal, gemstones, shark tooth fossils, and other stones that feel grounded and alive. No two stones are identical — natural variations are part of the beauty.

All jewelry is made by hand in my studio using traditional silversmithing techniques. The result is work that feels substantial, personal, and meant to be worn for years.

Care & Longevity

Sun Salt Silver jewelry is made to be worn and lived in. With a little care, your piece will keep its beauty for years.

Because many designs feature natural stones like turquoise, opal, shell, or fossilized materials, treat your jewelry gently.

A few simple guidelines:

• Remove before swimming, showering, or working with your hands
• Avoid lotions, perfumes, and cleaning products
• Store pieces separately to prevent scratching
• Gently polish silver with a soft cloth when needed
• Keep silk away from water, perfume, and lotions. Store flat or loosely coiled.

Natural stones can be sensitive to water and chemicals. Keeping your jewelry dry and stored safely will help preserve its color and finish.
