Along the Chesapeake, the Carolina sounds, and the Gulf Coast shallows, the Blue Crab is not just a species — it is a way of life. Crab pots, crab season, crab cakes, and the particular joy of pulling up a bushel on a warm summer evening are woven into the culture of the coastal Mid-Atlantic and the Southeast the way few things are. The Blue Crab is feisty, beautiful, and completely itself — and in hard-fired enamel on sterling silver, holding a genuine white topaz firmly in her claw, she is absolutely irresistible.
Nautora's Blue Crab Necklace is one of the most whimsical and charming additions to the Nautora Coastal Collection. The body of the crab is rendered in hard-fired enamel using the same age-old process perfected by Faberge and Tiffany — a blend of three colors that gives this little crustacean the vivid, luminous quality the Blue Crab wears in the wild. The enamel is fired at high temperature directly into the sterling silver, creating a permanently bonded finish that holds its color through years of daily wear. And the claw — she is holding a genuine white topaz gemstone firmly in one claw, a detail so unexpected and so completely delightful that it makes everyone who sees this pendant smile immediately.
At one and one-eighth inches tall by three-quarters of an inch wide the pendant has a confident, generous presence that wears beautifully at every neckline. The pendant comes on a sterling silver chain adjustable from 16 to 18 inches so it sits exactly right. The matching Blue Crab Earrings are also available from Nautora.
At Nautora, the Coastal Collection represents our highest level of craft. This Blue Crab necklace is built to be worn, treasured, and eventually passed on to whoever in the family loves the coast most.
Add it to your collection today — this one is too charming to wait on.
