Handmade Moon Crater Long Necklace Fold Forming Elegant Copper Artisan Jewelry.

Carry a little bit of moon on your neck. This dramatic and elegant intricate piece of jewelry is hand formed using a fold forming technique out of copper and a handmade lampwork glass bead. It started off as a flat sheet of copper and hours spent hammering to create these sculptural formation of craters, which has created value and depth in a three-dimensional form. A variation of tools were used to create the textural marks on the surface.

Hanging below it is a beautiful handmade lampwork bead to create interest and reflect light. Wire wrapped loops are attached to the bottom of the lampwork disk securely for a more feminine touch. The shape of this lampwork glass bead is very organic, almost like a crop circle, and not perfectly round. Makes this unique necklace looks more ancient than fabricated. A spray of fine copper chain dangles at the bottom.

This 18 inches long necklace is a lovely accessory to anyone who enjoys the artistic beauty of copper work.

The pendant hangs down 9 inches (23 - 25 cm) from the chain.

Unique necklace chain is made of copper plated brass mesh over black leatherette. About 4mm thick with rhodium plated lobster claps. The necklace is not adjustable but you can use it interchangeably with any other big holed pendants you have.

Dress up or dress down with this necklace. Dress up an evening gown with low neckline for weddings and/or other formal events. Wear it over your turtleneck shirt for a more casual get up. A very versatile piece of jewelry that can go with you anywhere.

This necklace is a unique design and one of a kind. I will make matching earrings/bracelet upon request. This art jewelry is signed on the back with POPNICUTE stamp.

Fold-forming is a technique of metalworking whereby metal is folded, repeatedly forged and annealed, and unfolded; at which stage it generally has a dramatic new three-dimensional form.

The technique was invented in the late 1980s by Charles Lewton-Brain.
