“Reef” Charm Pendant

I enjoy making pendants that utilize charms. This piece is from a series of theme inspired charm pendants. Starting from the top down, a bail of heavy argentium silver wire holds a coral bead. Attached to that is a bronze framed bezel that holds resin with inclusions of a petite pearl, pieces of seashell and tiny shards of glass and “fairy dust” – a.k.a. extremely fine glitter! A silver starfish swings to and fro at the bottom. Measuring almost 3″ in length, the pendant glides along a neckring made of hammer-textured bronze wire. NFS
