Sandstone and Hemp Necklace

Sandstone and Hemp Necklace

£35.00

Pretty biscuit hued sandstone with a pale band hangs from a soft organic hemp cord.

Pebble has been smoothed by the sea against the sand so has a nice smooth surface. 

Collected from Norfolk. 

Sandstone is a sedimentary rock composed primarily of silica. The band of white is probably from a change of depositional environment as it doesnt look like calcite or quartz. 

Made using a wire bezel technique I created, which is kind of a cross between basketry and weaving. It is a time consuming technique but a labour of love. Each piece of sea glass is securely and artistically encased in a delicate wire frame.

Surgical stainless steel findings. Highest quality stainless steel does not rust or tarnish, a hard wearing metal with a finish like antique sterling. Also suitable for people with metal allergies, stainless steel is used predominantly in the medical profession as people are less likely to react to it.

Necklace is 16 inches long with magnetic  clasp.

See photo of me wearing for idea of length / scale. Other variations available.
