This piece is absolutely gorgeous in person. I love Roderick Tenorio's designs anyway. The detail of the carving and the richness of the turquoise stone are breathtaking when you take it out of the box for the first time. I like the size of it too. It's a nice, large chunk of a pendant.

I orginally bought this Roderick Tenorio enhancer/pendant from another site for much more money than the (current) sale price of under $30. Because I get compliments on it every time I wear it, I purchased another here at Amazon to give as a gift. The native American symbols not only add interest, they have special meanings and tell a story. The Gentle Rain Cross Enhancer is bold in size and exceptionally well made. Turquoise colors may vary, but both of mine are the robin's egg blue so prized in turquoise. Being an enhancer, it can be attached to a beaded necklace, worn on a silver collar, silver omega necklace or leather cord, as well as on a heavier chain. It's truly a versatile work of art! Signed (stamped) on back, it's also a collectible piece of jewelry. What I love about the seller is their silver jewelry is made from recycled sterling silver in the USA.

Picture this pendant/enhancer attached to a beaded necklace or on a braided leather cord with a crisp, white shirt, pair of jeans and a black cardigan sweater... nice!

I have other Roderick Tenorio pieces but this is my favorite. The enhancer bail is hidden so the flow of the design is not disturbed. It is large but not over done. The center turquoise is a beautifull sky blue. The oxidized deep detail is true to Roderick's style. The price was GREAT!!This is the kind of piece you would see in Santa Fe in a shop in a glass case. This is a bold, heavy and quality made piece. It would look good on a leather cord or bold chain, up around the neck or 36" length. It would also look good layered in the middle. I wear it on a 36" turquoise chip necklace doubled so the cross hangs in the middle. Would make an excellent gift for a woman but a man could wear this also.
