In the essay, "How to Look at a Desert Sunset," Bruce Berger notes that the real desert sunset is to be found looking opposite to the sun, when the last rays fall on minutely-eroded mountains in shades of vermilion to plum, transforming the horizon to islands of pure yearning. In these magic moments, the dry clear air erases all distance and brings the faraway close: the cacti stand in prominent relief against the mountains and a rising full moon hangs large and round with all its features visible. The sterling silver charm on this 18" sterling silver chain necklace captures this instant in layers of cool metal. Sterling silver spring ring clasp.

Cost: $49.00 USD
