Flint, wood and pearl necklace







Flint, wood and pearl necklace
Stunning piece of flint paired with pearls, wood and seed pods.
It has been smoothed by the sea against the sand so has a nice polished surface.
Collected from Brighton.
This gorgeous flint has a little dimple from where a sponge once sat, and has since eroded away, only its trace remaining.
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 16.5 inches long on shortest strand. Vintage paste S-clasp.
See photo of me wearing for length.
