This one-of-a-kind lucky Charm Necklace features a chunky Hermes Foot amulet, a bursting star & a clutter of reclaimed gemstones, which include juicy orange carnelian, vintage coral and delicious blue-green malachite and turquoise.
Details:
Necklace Length: 17.5 inches. This can be adjusted and made longer to suit you. Please leave your required length in the gift note section at the checkout. Additional length is £10 per extra inch.
2 hand-carved brass amulets: A Hermes Foot and a Magic Star. Both of these charms were carved from jewellers wax and inspired by artefacts of the Classical World. The miniature sculptures have been cast into raw golden brass.
12 reclaimed gems: carnelian agates, abalones, malachite, pearls, citrine, turquoise and vintage coral.
A 9ct rolled gold curb chain necklace featuring a dog-clip, a T-bar & a dangling chain at the front.
The wires wrapping the stones & jump rings are all made from 14ct filled gold. Rolled & filled gold is a durable alternative to gold plating whereby a layer of gold is pressure bonded onto a base metal.
The large bolt clasp at the rear is made from raw brass - this is the clasp you should use to take the piece on & off. Simply fasten it onto the dog-clip clasp.
One-of-a-kind!
Care:
If you've chosen a piece that has a mix of cast brass amulets on a gold filled or gold-rolled chain, you'll need to treat these elements differently when caring for your jewels. You'll recieve a small white polishing pad with your order to be used on the brass amulets. Please refrain from using this pad on the chain, its quite course and will affect the way your gold looks. The gold is pressure bonded onto the base metal surface, rather than just electroplated on the top. This gold bond is much thicker than plate, and the 14ct gold of this chain makes up 5% of the total piece.
Dispatch and delivery:
Please allow me up to 10 days to dispatch your jewel. Altered lengths may take closer to 2 weeks as I may need to order extra components.
