 |
This charming pendant combines both metal smith and metal clay techniques to create a magical twirling pendant. Each side shows a different ‘face’ of the moon and is set in such a way that the faces can turn, revealing and concealing…according to the wearer’s wishes. 3 small buttons adorn each side and contain letters, spelling out carefully chosen words to compliment the theme. Finally the Faux Bone moon is imbedded with etchings and markings, allowing each student to create jewelry pieces that they can truly call their own.
