Orleans. Old South Collection Necklace - Oxidized fine and Sterling Silver. Handmade

"Old South Collection - Orleans" A collection crafted from antique buttons I borrowed from my grandmother's collection..

Coordinating Earrings shown in the 4th photo are found in a separate listing.

COMPONENTS/PROCESS:
~10mm round of recycled fine silver (99% pure silver/sterling is 92.5% silver) crafted & imprinted from old antique buttons by hand by me. As I construct each one entirely by hand sizes are approximate.
Dainty sterling silver satellite chain that closes with a sturdy spring ring clasp that I have securely wire wrapped with 2 fine silver nuggets.
An oxidized patina was added layer by layer then carefully removed by brushing & polishing by hand to add depth to the design & a bit of rustic appeal.

LENGTH:
Shown in a 16.5" length in last photo. Other lengths available from the drop down menu at checkout. Any other length requests are always welcome - feel free to contact me for a quote! :)

OTHER:
* This piece is MADE TO ORDER & as I construct each one entirely by hand please expect slight variations. Yours will be very similar to the one shown though =).

* Please note this piece requires a MINIMUM of 72 hours for me to fabricate. Please allow 7-10 business days for orders with standard shipping to ship. Rush shipping options are available.

* All pieces are lovingly fabricated by my two little hands (with help from a few pair of pliers, a couple of my favorite hammers & my handy torch) in my loft studio on my little farm in Oglethorpe County, GA.
