Seahorse Pendant with Gem Wrapped Chain

Description

I LOVED this sticker of a seahorse stamp and couldn't WAIT to get it in a necklace! I put the stamp in a brass bezel and wrapped it in filigree and decorative beads around the edge. I then created a 20" chain from a variety of crystal, 6mm aquamarine beads and freshwater pearl, all with the goal of accentuating the beautiful soft palette of the stamp. A toggle closure finishes the piece. Since all the metals are solid brass, the colors won't fade over time but rather just grow richer and deeper! The pendant is just over 1.5".
