A beautiful shell-shaped pendant
- Cord length: 51 cm (20 in)
- Largest element: 4 x 3 x 1.5 cm (1 1/2 x 1 x 1/2 in)
- Weight: 13 g (medium)
- Materials: Artisan earthenware (ceramics), leather, hypo allergenic stainless steel
This product contains animal material (leather), but I can replace it with a cork cord on request.
Note: Black nickel is a colour name. The product is nickel-free.
How is it made?
How is it made?
- I shape and air-dry the earthenware.
- I do a first firing in a specialized oven, called a kiln, to produce the "biscuit".
- I decorate and glaze the piece, then I do a second firing.
Each firing takes up to 5 hours and reaches 1000ºC. That's a lot hotter than your kitchen oven!
Care instructions
Care instructions
Earthenware is a little less resistant to breakage than terracotta.
Wear it and store it with care.
