ANNA JOHNSON | INCIRODA NECKLACE | STERLING SILVER
This extraordinary pendant necklace from Anna Johnson is a profoundly considered work of wearable art that pushes the boundaries of fine jewelry into the realm of living, breathing sculpture and philosophical inquiry. A rat skull, rodent incisors, Oregon opal, silver, and a cast lily of the valley converge in a single, deeply intentional composition of remarkable scale and narrative depth — each material chosen with unwavering purpose and artistic conviction. The found organic elements — skull, incisors, the delicate botanical casting of lily of the valley — speak to the cyclical, interconnected nature of all living things, while the luminous Oregon opal brings a shimmering, otherworldly depth that bridges the earthly and the ethereal in a single, breathtaking gemstone. Together they create a composition that challenges conventional ideas of beauty, value, and adornment — affirming Anna Johnson's deeply held belief in the extraordinary, irreplaceable worth of the natural world in all its forms. At an impressive 2-1/2" wide and 4" long on a 20-1/2" chain, this is a commanding and unmistakable presence — a piece that invites conversation, contemplation, and a profound rethinking of what fine jewelry can and should be. A nationally exhibited and critically recognized work by Asheville-based studio jeweler Anna Johnson — a truly once-in-a-lifetime collector's piece.
