VINCENT LAROCHELLE - DESIGNS BY LAROCHELLE

I cut & polish most of the stones I set in settings I make from sterling silver and/or14 kt. gold sheet and wire which I forge, form & braze together. I decide the shape & cut of the stone after studying the slab. Once cut, I design the setting to compliment the stone. Each piece is one of a kind.

Please browse the pendants, earrings and stones I have available on my website: https://designslarochelle.com/wp/ and let me know you were referred by this NWAA page. I will contribute 20% back to the NWAA in support of their work with local Pacific Northwest artists.
I'm happy to answer any questions about my artwork.

14 Kt. Gold Diamond and Ammonite Pendant:
​H: 1 ¼ inches (31.5 mm) x W: 7/8 of an inch (22.5 mm). Weight: .17 oz.. I made this 14 Kt. Gold pendant for this great small Ammonite and set it off with a 2.2 mm vs Diamond. The bezels are 22 Kt. Gold. I obtained this in trade from a German gem dealer in the early 1980’s in Quarzite, AZ. These were originally mined in the mid 70’s by German miners in Russia. The whole shell turned to iron pyrite (fool’s gold). To my knowledge these are all mined out. What is amazing is the size. It is small yet the shell structure is really visible. $1429.00
