In creating this adjustable necklace (20" to 24") I selected a striking sterling pendant set with a large free form Kingman turquoise cab, 5 mm seamless sterling beads, 7 by 19 mm seamed sterling melon beads, a sterling lobster clasp and four inches of sterling chain. The overall height of the pendant is nearly two inches including the bail and is one inch wide. The cab is slightly more than one inch by seven eights of an inch. The pendant is stamped sterling and with the initials "JR" which I believe stands for John Robinson.

I can  afford to use so many sterling beads as I bought kilos of Sterling findings years ago as an investment when they were far less expensive.
