Oyster - Handmade Sterling Silver Oyster Pendant

A solid sterling silver life sized oyster. A heavy piece. As I worked on it I gradually added layers as a real oyster shell has. This was a fun piece to make; lots of hammering. The texture on this piece is great and it has weight to it. You can see in one picture where you can slide the chain through.

~ I have been a goldsmith since age fourteen, proudly working alongside my father and learning this art-form for years. I care deeply about each piece I make and guarantee every item. It is a family tradition, and I take it very seriously. If anything ever happens to one of my items please contact me. ~
