Details:
This lovely small and subtle pendant has been created by etching a dense pattern of leaves into a piece of sterling silver. The teardrop shape has been cut out by hand and domed slightly at the larger end to give it an organic, leaf-like shape.
The etched areas have been given a soft and muted white silver oxide finish by way of repeated heating. The raised areas have then been gently sanded back, leaving an eye-catching, shiny silver finish.
The pendant has a really nice light weight to it and is suspended on a soft brown piece of natural silk thread which is finished with handmade sterling silver clasp findings. The thread is designed for use in jewellery and it can be handwashed and even ironed if required.
The necklace is approximately 43cm (17") long. I can generally change the length and even the colour if you like. Just leave a note indicating your preference when you checkout.
