A sculptural and sinewy pendant made from 100% recycled silver with recycled 18ct yellow gold Vermeil plating in a contemporary satin finish and a recycled silver contrasting dark patina chain.
Vermeil is a thicker and more beautiful quality of plating of at least 2.5 microns. I use 4 microns which is 8 times thicker than normal gold plating. It therefore displays all the luxurious glow, weight and feel of gold whilst being much more affordable than solid gold. Perfect for all you gold lovers. Both the silver and gold in this piece is recycled and has been reclaimed from products that range from scrap jewellery to scrap medical and electronic equipment. All of my work is created with sustainability in mind whilst retaining quality and integrity.
Pendant size: 5cm long x 2cm wide (at widest part) x 1cm deep
Chain length: 40cm plus a 6cm extension so you can customise the length to suit you (16inches extendable to 18inches).
If you would prefer a different length please contact me before ordering.
As a general rule protect all of your jewellery as much as you can from excessive heat, sunlight, sweat, swimming pools and chlorinated water, chemicals and cosmetics. Remove your jewellery before bathing, swimming, using household cleaners and bleach, putting on lotion, perfume or makeup.
This pendant is from my signature SKINS collection, featuring extraordinary layers, folds and textures made from the interaction and intervention of my skin against the material.
I have a fascination with texture, degradation and decay and in the traces and residues left behind often using my body as tool and material to explore the transference, intervention and preservation of the self; bodily presence in absence of the body.
