The Emblem Necklace was first created in red earthen clay, then fired and from this a mold was made to create the beautiful brass pendant you see here! Working first in clay creates a wonderfully natural, earthy, organic texture and feel, reminiscent of ancient artifacts found deep in the earth's core, or so I imagine.... The Emblem pendant measures 2" wide, 1/2" tall, and drapes the neck on a hand beaded strand of Czech glass beads with hints of metal and color. The beads are strung on a durable and strong waxed nylon string and finished with a trigger clasp and 3" extender chain.
