Rio Style Pendants in Sterling Silver  

Bold Geometry Meets Natural Stone: Rio Pendants

The rio cut transforms raw stone into structured art. Lapidaries work with the natural grain of each gemstone while imposing geometric order through calculated faceting. This approach suits stones with strong color saturation or internal patterns, as the angular surfaces create distinct zones of light and shadow that reveal depth within the material. Our rio style pendants feature stones sourced from deposits worldwide. You will find turquoise from Arizona and Nevada, larimar from the Dominican Republic, labradorite from Madagascar, and amber from Baltic regions. Each stone carries its own hardness rating and care requirements—turquoise at 5-6 on the Mohs scale needs protection from chemicals, while quartz varieties at 7 tolerate more casual wear. Every pendant ships with a .925 sterling silver setting, hallmarked and tested. We have operated from our US warehouse since 2005, maintaining direct relationships with cutters and miners to keep prices accessible across the $16 to $11,402 range.
