Some themes seem to captivate us, and the man in the moon motif resides at the top of many a wishlist.

Serene, colorful, and chubby, this man in the moon face glows with peacock hues of greens and blue, purples and pinks. In some lights, a warm, sunny glow lights up the interior. Changing depending on the ambient lighting and the surrounding hues, it has various moods.

In iridescent glass, every turn reveals colors that push to the forefront, then recede.

Endearing, the depiction of the face includes eyebrows, almond shaped eyes including irises, a defined nose and knowing smile. What doesn't the man in the moon know after all?

Oversized, and usually so, and scarce, the moon itself without the border, is more than 3/4 of an inch in diameter.

All in sterling silver for the setting, the moon face itself is bezel set with a surround of braided silver. Divided shoulder transition to a tapered, smooth shank.
