This ceramic pendant’s soft purple petals were made by hand-pressing clay into a plaster mold and hand-carving the finished details into the final piece.<\/p>\n
I created the original orchid by carving the shape directly into clay, then poured the plaster mold myself.<\/p>\n
No two pieces from this mold are exactly alike, because the details of each one must be finished by hand.<\/p>\n
The final pendant is bound with a flexible, decorative green wire.<\/p>\n
The molded wire chain has a simple hand-formed hook and eye closure that pinches shut for extra security.<\/p>\n
The entire necklace weighs 1.4 oz. and sits quite lightly around the neck.<\/p>\n
Let this funky, unique necklace speak to your unique personal style. Enjoy wearing your accessories as much as I enjoyed creating them.<\/p>\n
Your necklace will come carefully packaged in recycled, biodegradable, and reclaimed shipping materials. It will also be lovingly wrapped in a special Bon-Bon envelope (templates courtesy of Mirkwood Designs), with my heart-felt thanks for supporting my work.<\/p>\n
A side-note on creation: each of my ceramic pieces is fired in my hand-built, portable, propane-fired kiln, which I buy carbon offsets for every time I fire a new batch of ceramic art work.
