(This necklace has a wavy bezel edge, similar to the other version of the Ghost Story necklace with the dangling chains, the others in this design have straight bezels though. Just a heads up!)
Labradorites in all schillers and color arrays, some smokey and furtive, others bold as a crack of lightning. Soft lavenders and snakey greens and wisps of gray.
Surrounding the pendants is a simple, beaded border, like a ring of stones lining a cemetery. The backs of the pendants feature sweet, little sheet ghosts floating across a dark gray background.
Below each labradorite pendant is a single onyx gemstones, faceted to reflect bits of light.
This pendant has been aged and hand-polished for a textured, organic look, and to bring out the lowlights and accent the stone.

♥ Labradorite is an iridescent gemstone with a fascinating schiller or metallic luster when viewed from certain angles. The base color of labradorite is a smokey gray, but when light strikes the stone in a particular direction, it displays striking rainbow-colored reflections.

♥ This piece is part of the Nocturne Collection, an annual collection in time for Halloween. Everything has a dark, witchy aesthetic, sometimes whimsical and sometimes sombre.
Made in my smithing studio using time consuming, age-old metalsmithing techniques. This piece is made with solid craftsmanship and all parts of this piece have been hand-fabricated.
______________________________________________
All of the pieces in my collections are handmade and hand-finished, and make use of natural and recycled materials. All items will have slight, natural imperfections rendering each piece unique. It is these variations and imperfections which denote their handcrafted nature and individual character, specially made for every wearer.

To create my antiqued pieces, the sterling silver is oxidize until dark gray. Oxidation is a process that happens over time naturally to sterling silver. Then the piece is brushed and polished until the highlights are lighter and the lowlights are darkened. But this oxidization is not permanent, and will fade in the areas that rub, and stay dark in the recesses. The patina will change over time, making your piece unique to you.
