While working on some designs on deer-mask pendants for our Project Greenleaf I got started and couldn't stop myself. My beautiful daughter is modeling this one for me today <3.
Necklace design includes:
Pendant = roughly 2 inches long - made from Craft Porcelain (air dry clay, chip & shatter resistant (not shatter-proof... just resistant)) + acrylic pearl-coat + sealant & high gloss sealer... eyes are set 8 millimeter Natural Lapis-Lazuli beads.
Natural stones beads used on the cord:
Amber beads & chips:
Clear & white quartz
Peridot (olivine)
Carnelian
Sunstone
Lapis-lazuli
Multi-colored tourmaline beads and chips
Sapphire
Emerald Chips
Gold-filled crimp covers
Sterling silver chain + brass beading wire + gold-filled rose-shaped box-tab clasp + brass/copper leaf-shaped drops + sterling silver wings
<3 All the stones included have their own meaning and symbolism that I connect to the forest and my doe Light's personality. Her pictogram is painted on the back of the pendant. <3
