Bones and stones statement necklace

This unique and bold statement necklace was hand fabricated by me in my studio. Three beautiful pebbles and a piece of weathered bone- nature's finds or nature’s gifts- are the focal elements of this piece. The pebbles, shaped by water and sand are wonderfully flat and smooth, perfect for setting on the hand fabricated, textured sterling silver links. Small botanical shapes were pierced in the backplates of these settings. In order to preserve and accentuate the natural shape of the bone, a sterling silver form was forged that follows the curve of the bone and holds it in place with small silver tabs. A slab of sterling silver, created by melting silver on a charcoal block and flattening it with a blacksmith hammer is the fifth element of this assembly. The substantial sterling silver chain is composed of organically shaped, individually formed and fused sterling links. The chain was designed to ensure a very comfortable wear of his substantial piece. The necklace is closed with a handmade S-clasp. A small matching tag, stamped with the artist’s mark is linked to the clasp. This necklace was oxidised to accentuate the contrasting textures.
